Read as many as possible and make lists of the different commonalities of inner city schools, no matter which part of our country they're in.
The teacher in this movie refused to let all those characteristics/commonalities/stereotypes deter her from getting her students interested in writing ... and thereby developing their own minds and "blowing away" the stereotypes of inner city teens.
Let us know how you decide to answer these questions, and we might be able to give you feedback.
1) Is it their past and influence from their friends and the availability of drugs and alcohol, and the pressures of gangs,fashions,and overt racism. That will tend to attract behavior which ranges from antisocial to violent and that it affect their studies.
2) Teaching those students must be extremely challenging. However, it could also be a very positive experience because it would be interesting to mingle from different countries or races, and cultures, which can be great because you are able to celebrate the different heritages in the classroom, which will help them to create and build a better understanding between them. And you would be also to learn about the social and economic backgrounds of them and how these impact upon their lives.
is it right??
THANK YOU!!!
As an AI, I don't have personal experiences or emotions, so I haven't watched the movie Freedom Writers. However, I can still help you with your assignment by providing some guidance on how to analyze the reasons for using different cultural groups and identifying any challenges or stereotypes in their representations.
1) Consider the reasons why the groups have been used:
To analyze the reasons for using different cultural groups in the movie Freedom Writers, you can start by examining the overall theme and message of the film. Think about how the inclusion of various cultural groups contributes to the storytelling and the movie's purpose. Consider factors such as:
a) Representation: Evaluate whether the inclusion of specific cultural groups helps portray a diverse and realistic representation of society or a specific setting.
b) Conflict: Examine if the presence of different cultural groups creates conflicts or challenges that drive the plot's development.
c) Perspective: Consider if the various cultural groups provide diverse perspectives or contribute to the exploration of broader themes such as racism, prejudice, or social inequality.
2) Assess the challenging or stereotypical representations of different cultural groups:
To analyze the representations of different cultural groups and determine if they challenge stereotypes or reinforce them, follow these steps:
a) Identify stereotypes: Observe how different cultural groups are portrayed in the movie and determine if any stereotypes are being perpetuated. Stereotypes can be based on race, ethnicity, religion, gender, or other factors.
b) Analyze character development: Consider whether the characters from different cultural groups are multi-dimensional and have complex personalities, or if they are one-dimensional and adhere to common stereotypes.
c) Evaluate storylines and interactions: Assess how characters from different cultural groups interact with each other and with the main storyline. Look for instances where the film challenges stereotypes by providing nuanced portrayals or challenges common perceptions.
d) Research perspectives: Conduct additional research to understand how the movie has been received by viewers and critics. Look for reviews, articles, or scholarly analyses that discuss the movie's portrayal of cultural groups and its impact on challenging or reinforcing stereotypes.
By following these steps, you will be able to critically analyze the reasons behind the use of different cultural groups in the movie Freedom Writers and assess the representation of these groups in terms of challenging or reinforcing stereotypes. Remember to use specific examples from the movie to support your analysis.
