My name is Jenn, and for my Education seminar we are doing a project entitled: Media Representations of Teachers. In order to figure out how teachers are depicted in media, I decided to do a critical analysis of the film, Easy A, and look at it from the perspective of a future educator. This film takes place in a school, so we get to know several students, a teacher- Mr. Griffiths, his wife- the guidance counselor, and the school principal.
How are teachers portrayed in this movie? What film strategies are used to emphasize meaning? Do I agree with the depiction of teachers and the overall structure of the school?
So, now I'm going to watch the movie and record my thoughts and observations!
Nice opening post to set up the project!
