JRR 톨킨: "호빗": 판타지 문학 연구 도서 동아리

This class is a book club for JRR Tolkien's "The Hobbit". We will read the whole book over the course of 7 weeks and discuss the life of JRR Tolkien, book characters, major events, themes, symbolism, structure, and worldbuilding. This class incorporates elements from English standards of learning into an engaging and dynamic atmosphere. 

Each week, learners will need to read (or listen via audiobook) to the applicable chapters and answer a short prompt/ reflection question posted to the classroom page. Students will need to read / listen to 3 chapters per week. (For example, for class 01, your learner will need to read chapters 1, 2, & 3, and post a short answer to the prompt on the classroom page before class.) 

In class, the instructor will facilitate discussion of the week's readings, so learners need to come prepared to discuss, ask questions, and give commentary. In addition to in-class discussions and reflection prompts, learners will be able to test their knowledge of the book and its themes, characters, etc. through kahoot games and friendly competition. Some games will be done during our class session, others will be available for learners to complete outside of class. The instructor will provide access to kahoot games once learners have registered for the class. 

This is an interactive class. Learners are required to appear on camera for the duration of class. Class sessions are recorded for learner safety and participation, and failure to appear on camera will result in students being withdrawn from the class without a refund.
