Modul má dvojí cíl:
1) Rozvíjet jazykové dovednosti studentů, a to zejména porozumění mluvenému slovu a schopnost vyjádřit svůj názor v debatě a písemné reflexi.
2) Rozvíjet sociologické chápání filmu a seznámit studenty se způsobem, jakým se film zabývá sociologickými tématy, a jakým poutá pozornost diváka k zamyšlení nad společností.
Poslední úprava: Mgr. Dagmar Štěpánková (16.09.2023)
There are two main learning objectives of the course:
1) The course aims to improve students’ listening comprehension, develop students’ ability to share their opinions in discussions and in response papers.
2) The course enhances a sociological understanding of cinema and the way cinema deals with sociological themes and engages the public in reflection on society.

Metody výuky
Seminář se bude konat jednou za dva týdny – a bude trvat zhruba o hodinu déle, než je uvedená délka filmu.
Filmy jsou v anglickém jazyce a jsou opatřeny anglickými titulky.
Film bude krátce uveden (max 20 minut, včetně úvodní aktivity), po jeho skončení bude beseda s filmařem Keithem Jonesem.
V případě nutnosti přejít na online výuku, studenti shlédnou film samostatně (všechny filmy budou pro ně bude dostupné online) a debata proběhne online v určenou dobu.
Hybridní výuka není v plánu.
Poslední úprava: Mgr. Dagmar Štěpánková (16.09.2023)
Sessions will be held once in two weeks (from 5 pm on Wednesdays 12 Oct, 26 Oct, 9 Nov, 23 Nov, and 7 Dec and 21 Dec.) and will be about an hour longer than the film itself.
There will be no class on 17 November, but a film will be available for students to stream.
