LYST 247 - Language, Discourse, and Cinema: Implications for Schooling
Explores the techniques of cinematography-the “language of film”-in
order to examine how film conveys meaning, as well as how this
expressive system has become one of the most rapidly evolving forms of
symbolic communication. This sort of knowledge base is a prerequisite
to any deeper exploration of specific aspects of cinema, such as the
second focus of the course, which is to consider the language within
film by examining a selection of English-language motion pictures for
linguistic insights about the relationship between language, culture,
and identity. Course culminates in an exploration of the pedagogical
implications of these linguistic/cinematic insights on language and
literacy instruction in American schools.
