*List all the words of which you are unsure. Look them up and write down definitions.

*Outline all the important subtopics in the reading and design a discussion question that you could ask for each subtopic.

*Note the areas that confuse you and those that you find interesting.

*Note the relationships between the readings and the films, if relevant.

*Write down a summary of the author’s message.

*Evaluate the material; write down your reaction to the author’s message and delivery.

*How is the film structured or organized?

*What visual tropes can you describe?

*How do you interpret the film and what concrete evidence supports your reading?
