Claudia and I have decided to change the focus of the writing from a purely film review issue to an essay whose focus is to show the advantages or disadvantages of the film (Elizabeth or Modern times) as a pedagogical tool. You should write bearing in mind that the essay is meant for an English teacher or future English teacher to read and see if the use of either of these films might be beneficial to his/her learning/teaching experience.
These are the instructions, marking criteria and guidelines to write your final essay based on a film you have seen during this term:

http://depts.washington.edu/pswrite/grading.html
1. Write about 700 words.
2. Write a catchy title that is clearly linked with your writing
3. State your purpose clearly at the beginning. Explain structure of the essay.
4. Each paragraph should contain a clear idea.
5. Use linking words between paragraphs to make the text flow.
6. Give your opinion and clearly explain your rationale behind your thinking.
7. Write a conclusion that clearly summarises the main points you´ve raised, and that shows your critical engagement.
Deadline, Friday 4 at 12.00. Please leave two copies with Normita and upload it to your blog.
Regards,
Oscar L.
