Thank you so much for this lecture on Korean culture and how big it has become. Learned how Korean has influenced has gone international with its music, drama, movies and products. During the lecture I wrote down all the movies mentioned because I plan on seeing them for my film review. Like many other people, I too was introduced by K-pop through my family. Interesting to learn that most middle age women watch dramas because that is how I was introduced to it by my mother. It may also be that most middle age women are housewives and have time to watch dramas at home, I know I would if I had the time.
As mentioned by another teacher here, I can see myself teaching Korea by doing a group project with my students. I was thinking about how I can write different subjects on Korea on a piece of paper and having kids randomly choose them. Then students would create a PowerPoint on their topic where they will teach to the class. Afterwards, students can then choose to make an artwork on what they learned by using any media of their choice. This lesson would be great for students to learn and get introduced to Korean culture, if they haven’t already had some. This lesson would most likely be best for my AP Studio Art students who are asked to show mastery in different media of their choice.
