participation summary
Humanities
To encourage you to think about the various ways you engage with the material from this course (in and outside of class), you will submit, at the end of term, a 1-2 page summary detailing your participation this term.
This course is called Crime & Media, this course gives you the opportunity to think critically about how the mainstream, largely American mass media represent crime, criminality, justice, and resistance.This is a critical course in that the prof hopes to challenge you to think about the media and popular culture (something most of you are probably already “experts” in) in ways you have not thought about them before, and the same goes for the way you think about criminality. The focus of this course is not crime or criminality per se, so we are not really preoccupied with asking if these representations are accurate. Nor are we concerned with whether watching them will effect us in clear, observable ways (hint: it doesn’t work like that). Instead, we are trying to understand these images within the context of their own media worlds, as well as within the larger socio-cultural and historical contexts within which they were produced.
i will attach some of the course readings below i just need a page of explaining what i have learned though this course we watched the first episode of a few shows that you will find in the course outline i will also attach that below.
