Who Is This Course For?

Grades 9-12 and adult learners with an interest in global cinema or African art, history, and culture

Course Requirements

No prior knowledge or experience required. Basic understanding of visual or film analysis recommended, but not required

If you are new to film studies or need a refresher on film analysis, I strongly recommend you take our ‘Learning to Look at Film‘ course before starting this one. In that course, you will develop and practice the basic vocabulary, theory, and critical observation skills required to do a film analysis

We do not meet at a specific time. This course is entirely online, asynchronous, and self-paced

To receive a Certificate of Completion for PD/CEU credit hours or course equivalency documentation, you must complete at least 80% of the course and all activities, quizzes, and coursework
