Using the Movie Oleanna for Class Discussions
E101: Introduction to College Writing
This RTF document will automatically open in a Word Processor.

Contributed By: Charles Tackett , 12/02/08
Document Type: Assignment -- Argumentative Paper
The movie Oleanna, was an interesting provocation for discussions in my ENG101 classes. It's a polarizing movie, with sympathies reversed from what we might expect. Using a format of open discussions, I believe I moved students from general to specific, from assumptions to facts and finally from biases to ojectivity.
