맥라브르의 거장: 포의 작품

Together we will explore Poe's gruesome topics paralleled with his life to discover the inspiration for his prolific work.   In addition to learning about the author, students will examine and learn to identify literary devices including but not limited to irony, metaphor, symbolism, personification, imagery, alliteration, onomatopoeia, foreshadowing, hyperbole, and more. 

Discussion and interaction are required elements of this class and students are STRONGLY urged to use their cameras and microphones in order to receive the full benefits of this class. 

**********PLEASE READ*************
Outschool has recently changed its policy regarding class cancellations. We know how disappointing canceled classes can be for learners, so we too are amending our policy.  In the past we have waited for late enrollees, of which we have had MANY!  Unfortunately we can no longer do that. 

IF enrollment falls below 3 students, we will push the class back a week.  When other sections are available students will have the option to transfer to another class.  Full refunds will be provided for learners who cannot attend the newly scheduled class time. Partial refunds for missed classes are NOT available. If a student must miss class, the recording is available to view at their convenience. All other refunds will be provided as per the Outschool Limited Refund policy (see below).  If for any reason the class does not meet your expectation, you have the confidence of knowing that Outschool has a Happiness Guarantee and will provide a refund upon request via their Customer Support. 

Transfer requests within 24 hours of a scheduled class will NOT be approved.  At that point it is too late to reschedule the class, and it is unfair to other families who may have enrolled thinking there were multiple learners enrolled. Instead students will be encouraged to watch the video of the class.
 
Thank you for understanding, and for your loyalty.

Students will be expected to complete reading(s) prior to class and be prepared to participate and engage.  Class will include slides, interactive conversations, activities, discussion and the use of technology when appropriate. Students do not need any prior knowledge or experience, but should be mature enough to discuss death, murder, treachery and deceit without being traumatized.
