Exams

Both the midterm and the final in this class will be cumulative essay exams. If you turn in notecards, you will be able to use them on the final. You may also bring other materials to use during the final – in-class notes, notes from watching films & any other notes you wish to prepare in advance. You will be required to turn in these materials with your exam (and I will give them back to you). The questions on the exams will ask you to use higher order thinking skills to respond to the historical and theoretical developments in film. You will need to explain your ideas using concrete examples from the films we watched in class and other films you have seen.
