    CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION In this chapter the writer presents the discussion on the background of the study, the research questions, the definitions of key terms, the objectives of the study, the significances of the study, and the organization of the thesis. A. Background of the Study The study of these signs, codes and conventions in film is called semiotics or semiotic analysis. Semiotic analysis is a way to explain how an audience makes meaning from codes. Peirce in Manoon de Reeper (1997: 20). American philosopher Charles Sanders Peirce (1839). He wrote that a sign “is something which stands to somebody for something in some respect or capacity”. Zeman (1977: 24). All meaning is encoded in that which creates the meaning. No object or word is without meaning one cannot read or see something without associating it to a certain idea. Everyone has been taught how to decode what they see, read and hear. We have all learned to decode meaning. It is how we make sense of our surroundings, essentially, of the world. Semiotic analysis is used to “read” a film and its text. It’s mostly used in academic study of film. Peirce proposes several typologies and definitions of the signs. More than 76 definitions of what a sign is have been collected throughout Peirce's work. Some canonical typologies can nonetheless be observed, one crucial one being the distinction between "iconix", "indexical" and "symbolic". The icon, 1 2 index and symbol sign typology is chronologically the first but structurally the second of three that fit together as a trio of three-valued parameters in regular scheme of nine kinds of sign.

  • Acrobat Distiller, Job 39
    DANGEROUS MINDS Cast : Michelle Pfeiffer, George Dzundza, Courtney B. Vance, Renoly Santiago, Wade Dominguez Director : John N. Smith Producers : Don Simpson and Jerry Bruckheimer Screenplay : Ronald Bass based on “My Posse don`t do homework” by Louanne Johnson Cinematography : Pierre Letarte Music : Wendy and Lisa U.S. Distributor : Warner Brothers In the movies, like in the real life, it isn`t enough to have a heart in the right place. Good intentions are nice, but they need to be backed up with an intelligent script telling an involving story. In the case of “Dangerous Minds” we have an example of inner city life, where, the story about crime and school is very good represented. This film based on a true story (My posse don`t do homework, written by Louanne Johnson) is a Don Simpson & Jerry Bruckheimer production which stars like Michelle Pfeiffer as former Marine LouAnne Johnson, who leaves an officer`s commission and a nine year military career to pursue her dream of becoming an English teacher. She gets a “special” class , which is full of students who have no respect for anything or anyone. LouAnne discovers quickly, which students will be hardest for her to reach . When she starts introducing the class to poetry through the lyrics of Bob Dylan, she begins to realize how much trouble the class is really in. She has to fight to save one of her brightest pupils (Bruklin Harris) from the poverty cycle of teen pregnancy and others from gang warfare. But the most notable is between LouAnne and an especially difficult pupil, Emilio (Wade Dominguez).

Chapel Hill 2011 Approved by: James Trier, Ph.D. Cheryl Mason Bolick, Ph.D. Heather Coffey, Ph.D. Deborah Eaker-Rich, Ph.D. George Noblit, Ph.D. © 2011 Reid L. Adams ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Reid L. Adams: Pop Culture and Pedagogy: Taking Up School Documentaries in Teacher Education (Under the direction of James Trier) In the forward to Reading Television , Fiske and Hartley (2003) write that television programs ”constitute a gigantic empirical archive of human sense-making, there for the taking, twenty-four/seven” (p.xviii). In addition, this “gigantic empirical archive” also includes fiction films, video games, documentary films, commercials, news media, radio, Internet, and many other forms of mass-produced visual media found in popular culture. In this dissertation I explore a particular piece of this contemporary archive. I suggest pedagogical projects based on a cultural studies analysis of “school docs,” a particular genre of documentary films that I have defined and catalogued. This genre includes such documentary films as: Hoop Dreams (1994) , Mad Hot Ballroom (2004), OT: Our Town (2002) , Stupid in America (2006), Waiting for Superman (2010), and The War on Kids (2009). The pedagogical projects that I conceptualize are intended to explore issues and topics relevant to teacher education coursework; specifically issues and topics associated with the teaching of Social Foundations of Education.

  • Teachers in Film: Always in Process
    Teachers in Film: Always in Process Claire Ahn Queen’s University Carl Leggo University of British Columbia Abstract Teachers are often portrayed in Hollywood films as superhuman. While these types of films may perpetuate certain stereotypes of teachers, they can also have a great influ- ence. Based on their own teaching experiences, and having viewed and re-viewed the films Dangerous Minds (Bruckheimer, Simpson, & Smith, 1995) and The English Teacher (Despres, LeClair, Salerno, & Zisk, 2013), the authors reflect on the importance of offering pre-service teachers the chance to consider how Hollywood-teacher films can affect their emerging teacher identities. This article is the result of a research project that included an extensive review of 25 Hollywood-teacher films, and through the pro- cesses of narrative inquiry provides a self-reflexive discussion on how certain films have shaped the authors’ teaching and teacher identities. Canadian Journal of Education / Revue canadienne de l’éducation 42:1 (2019) ©2019 Canadian Society for the Study of Education/ Société canadienne pour l’étude de l’éducation www.cje-rce.ca Teachers in Film 118 Keywords: teacher education, reflection, film, teacher identity, critical pedagogy, teacher inquiry, narrative inquiry Résumé Les enseignants sont souvent dépeints comme des superhéros dans les films hollywoodiens. Alors que certains de ces films contribuent à entretenir certains stéréotypes des enseignants, ceux-ci peuvent également avoir une très bonne influence. Sur la base de leur propre expé- rience d’enseignement, et ayant visionné et revisionné les films Mentalité dangereuse (Dangerous Minds) (Bruckheimer, Simpson, & Smith, 1995) et Une drôle de prof (The English Teacher) (Despres, LeClair, Salerno, & Zisk, 2013), les auteurs font une réflexion sur l’importance d’offrir aux enseignants en formation initiale l’occasion de considérer comment les enseignants des films hollywoodiens peuvent avoir un impact sur leur identité d’enseignant émergente.

During this project, my intention is to set up the concept of “representation” and race by having preservice teachers analyze selected readings by Stuart Hall (1980) and Henry Giroux (1997), view films such as Dangerous Minds and Freedom Writers, and then review and analyze the users’ comments on Internet Movie Database. The analysis of the comments are completed using Hall’s (1980) theory of reading, which attributes three kinds of readings: “preferred,” “negotiated,” and “oppositional” readings. My goal with this project is to engage preservice teachers in critical discussions of race and representation within the classroom. Ultimately, I hope to encourage preservice teachers to think critically about popular culture messages and representations and how these messages affect their role in the classroom.

  • COACH CARTER AS a Reflection on the Sports – Academic Debate
    ‘I LEARNED ALL ABOUT LIFE WITH A BALL AT MY FEET’: COACH CARTER AS A REFLECTION ON THE SPORTS – ACADEMICS DEBATE AND EDUCATION HO MANH TOAN 11413016 ‘I learned all about life with a ball at my feet’: Coach Carter as a reflection on the sports – academics debate and education ABSTRACT How does Coach Carter (Carter, 2005) reflect the debate between sports and academics in reality? The research examines the case of a sports movie Coach Carter, which possesses many characteristics of the education film genre but has often been excluded from the academic realm. This exclusion reflects a debate on sports versus academia and the priority of academics in an education system. The film follows formulas of a conventional sports film but creates its main conflict around sports – academics tension with the spirit of an education film. In conclusion, Coach Carter denies supporting the myth that success can be easily found in sports and advocates for a balance between sports and academics. KEYWORDS Education; cinema; film; movie; sports; academic; school; Coach Carter. 1 ACKNOWLEDGEMENT Upon the finish and submission of this thesis, I would like to express my gratitude to my advisor Professor Joseph Progler for his guidance, suggestions, and advice since the beginning until the finishing of this thesis. ‘A teacher like you cannot be found’. I would like to thank my older brother Ho Manh Tung and his wife Nguyen Hong Kong, my friend Nguyen Hai Phong for their feedbacks in the editing process.
