Today, you finished watching the film Rabbit-Proof Fence. Yesterday, you were provided with questions to answer while you watched it
· I reviewed some of the answers from yesterday’s class. Many of you are not spending time considering the answers of examining the questions for clues. Answers, like the one below, are NOT acceptable:
Question: What were the consequences for those who escaped and were caught by the tracker?
Lousy answer: “got whipped.”
· When you get a question, look for the plurals ("consequences" in the above question, is plural) as they will have plural (more than one) answer. Further, the reason for watching this film isn’t to waste time, but to show how Australian aboriginals parallel the experiences of aboriginals in other places (ie: CANADA).
· For the record, a reasonable answer to the above question would have been:
Reasonable answer: “Those caught were whipped, had their hair cut off, and were put in a locked isolation hut (box, solitary confinement).”
· I want you to review your answers from yesterday and then fix them to an acceptable level.
