    1. Schemas.Aschema(pluralschemasorschemata) is a structure that organizes largeamounts of information into a meaningful system. Schemas include our generalizedknowledge about situations (Matlin, 2009). Schemas are plans we learn and use dur-ing our environmental interactions. Larger units are needed to organize propositionsrepresenting bits of information into a coherent whole (Anderson, 1990). Schemas as-sist us in generating and controlling routine sequential actions (Cooper & Shallice,2006).

    2. Piaget (1962) offered a different view of imitation. He believed that humandevelopment involved the acquisition of schemes (schemas), or cognitive structures thatunderlie and make possible organized thought and action (Flavell, 1985). Thoughts andactions are not synonymous with schemes; they are overt manifestations of schemes.Schemes available to individuals determine how they react to events. Schemes reflectprior experiences and comprise one’s knowledge at any given time.

      Schema and the discussion about one's knowledge and experiences are important to my analysis. it provides pedagogical information and reserach

    1. Humanities is an interdisciplinary course in which students recognize writing as an art form. Students read widely to understand how various authors craft compositions for various aesthetic purposes. This course includes the study of major historical and cultural movements and their relationship to literature and the other fine arts. Humanities is a rigorous course of study in which high school students respond to aesthetic elements in texts and other art forms through outlets such as discussions, journals, oral interpretations, and dramatizations. Students read widely to understand the commonalities that literature shares with the fine arts. In addition, students use written composition to show an in-depth understanding of creative achievements in the arts and literature and how these various art forms are a reflection of history. All students are expected to participate in classroom discussions and presentations that lead to an understanding, appreciation, and enjoyment of critical, creative achievements throughout history. Understanding is demonstrated through a variety of media.

      quote this and talk about how literature can be woven into other art mediums (vids, photo, modernism and postmodernism as a collected art construct) this is why we are allowed to use film

    1. To connect to a student's schemata, teachers should (1) present information that builds background ideas, concepts, and principles; (2) show (don't tell) through demonstrations, multimedia, and graphics; (3) use outside resources, trips, and speakers; and/or (4) tell about the topic from personal experience.

      great advice to heed. background info is an important concept. talk about it.

    2. . I have found that the use of film for at-risk students far surpasses literature as facilitation for in- creasing the literacy and critical-thinking skills of my students, and that includes, surprisingly enough, their reading and writing skills

      movies help at risk students and encourage the writing process.

    3. do not permit the showing of R-rated feature films at all; teachers may use only excerp

      i feel that this decision may hinder teachable concept though. R rated movies may be grittier than most other movies, but they provide real insight into an idea and help achieve memorable lessons

    4. c. After all, don't we partly blame film and television for the low literacy levels in societ

      true statement. coincides with the negative argument above. ironic that teachers blame tv and etc for the loss of reading in schools so they play movies to get a reaction out of their students. not good. maybe untrue?

    5. Ezra Pound, and T. S. Eliot have gone so far as to view any form of popular cul- ture as "a threat to the very existence of civilization as well as an expression of the vulgarization and deca- dence of the masse

      it would be very meta and ironic if i used pop culture to teach them then.
