First Lesson - 3rd November 2010
Today was the first lesson we had on our small scale research project, we spent two hours going through what was expected of us and what we had to include. we got told there are 8 critical approaches for us to choose from;
- star/performer
- genre
- auteur
- social and political contexts
- gender
- ethnicity
- insitution
we also did a plan and decided what interests we had for each of these.
