Learning Plan
I am going to make a better plan now. I included some questions on a few, so any input would be appreciated.
Learning Outcomes
1. Gain Shakespeare Literacy
a. Breadth: The four plays I am going to focus on this semester are Romeo and Juliet, Measure for Measure, The Tragedy of King Richard the Third, and The Winter's Tale.
b. Depth: I am going to go all out on Romeo and Juliet by collecting criticism, finding various art, etc
c. Performance: I plan on watching different interpretations on Romeo and Juliet, and other plays.
d. Legacy: to satisfy the history demand, I plan on going over criticism from the 1970's, 80's, 90's, and 0's to understand how criticism on Romeo and Juliet has developed in the last few decades. This might cover the scholarship portion of this demand, but I also want to research the psychological side of Juliet and Romeo, and perhaps dab a bit into gender. As far as popular culture goes, I am still out to expose the modern takes on Shakespeare.
2. Analyze Shakespeare Critically
a. Textual analysis: I believe that my sonnet a week will cover this demand.
b. Contextual Analysis: I want to understand the geography of the setting of each play, and I want to do research on Verona's culture to see if the youth of the time might actually forget family feuds in the name of love.
c. Application of literary theories: I want to research Psychoanalytical criticism with the plays I read.
d. Analysis of digital mediations: I will mostly focus on graphic novels and mangas I can find online.
3. Engage Shakespeare Creatively
a. Performance: I will either participate with the class on this project, or I will recite something, more than likely duel with my cat, and post this video on my blog.
b. Literary imitation: Will writing a sonnet fulfill this requirement?
4. Share Shakespeare Meaningfully.
a. Formal Writing: I plan on reporting my research on the psychology of the youth of Shakespeare's Verona on my blog, along with comments on the criticism I find.
b. Informal Writing: I plan on either updating my blog or commenting on other blogs daily.
c. Connecting: I think the blog takes care of sharing my work with the class, and I plan on possibly performing a little production with some old roommates.
