The Poem, the Reader and the Camera: Using Camcorders as Notebooks for the Study of Poetry
Hodges, Gabrielle Cliff
English Teaching: Practice and Critique, v4 n1 p70-80 May 2005
This article explores the potential of using camcorders when studying poetry in secondary school English teaching. Drawing on the work of trainee teachers on a Secondary English and Drama Postgraduate Certificate in Education course in the UK, it argues that the process of representing poetry as moving image enables learners to deepen their explicit understanding of how both kinds of texts work.
