Criticial analysis assignment - Media Depiction of Teachers

Part I - Use a double-bubble map (a thinking map used for comparison and contrast - see example below) to compare and contrast a teacher from a movie or TV show to a real life teacher that you have. For each bubble cite an example to support the adjective that you use in the bubble.

Example of double-bubble map:















Part II: Choose one specific scene that particularly defines the teacher character that you chose and do a shot-by-shot analysis that explains how the director conveys this impression of the teacher using cinematic elements: dialogue certainly, but also sound, visuals, lighting, editing, etc.

Part III: Find a piece of nonfiction - blog, article, memoir, or even vlog - about a real-life teacher and cite at least five example quotes that show how the examples for the life of this actual teacher either supports the media portrayal you chose or contradicts it.
