High School teachers (especially those training students for AS literature).
To get teachers to:
- Evaluate the obstacles that make it difficult to approach this dramatic text with adolescents whose native tongue is not English, as well as the points that make it a good choice.
- Discuss the relevance of the play today.
- Discuss approaches and develop techniques to approach the play in the high school classroom, exploring cross-curricular activities and gaps of indeterminacy.
- Explore tasks which can help students who are being trained for the AS examination.
- Relate the play intertextually to other discourse genres and media.
- Shakespeare's dramatic handling of the issue of otherness and displacement.
- Character and theme.
- The role of magic in the play.
- Different theoretical points of entry (gender roles, exploring the silences in the text, the post-colonial reading, etc.).
- Exploiting the dramatic text in class.
- A look into performance and hypertextual intervention through different film versions and Manga Shakespeare comics.
Workshop: participants will discuss different entry points that may motivate students to read on, analyse different literary aspects of the play, analyse film versions and other hypertexts of the play and discuss their usefulness in the classroom, and design AS-type tasks in groups.
