English 1C introduces students to the analysis and interpretation of texts. In 1C, reading becomes as important as writing: that is, students will strive to become more aware of reading as an interpretive act, requiring critical scrutiny of underlying presuppositions. Students will deepen their understanding of the shaping power of language and its conventions and become more aware of the collaborative nature of making meaning. Students will learn to read a diverse set of media including film, literature, video games, and consumer products while gaining experience in deploying critical methodologies to articulate sophisticated arguments about these media and their impact on cultural formations.
