about Shakespeare Workshop |
The Summer Shakespeare Workshop is designed to help students meaningfully engage with one of the greatest writers in the English Language. For students both well-read and new to Shakespeare's work, this workshop will provide deepened understanding of Shakespeare by exploring his literary, theatrical and historical context, as well as interacting with his works first hand. Lectures will develop a knowledge base that enables students to approach Shakespeare's works in an informed manner. The purpose of the lectures is not to give conclusive answers on a topic, but to provide context and information that will aid students in asking their own well-directed questions of Shakespeare's work. Group discussions provide a forum for students to ask those questions and engage critically with Shakespeare's plays first hand. Discussion cultivates good reading and interpretation skills as students and tutor work together to discern the meaning of Shakespeare's writing. Through theatrical activities, the workshop aims to bring Shakespeare's plays to life according to their intended media of acting, and round out the education process by enabling students to think, breath, move and speak the drama they find in the pages of Shakespeare. Check back next Spring for information concerning Summer 2010 Workshops. |
| In conjunction with Escondido Tutorial Service, Aletheia Tutorials is providing individualized paper conferences. Available to students enrolled in Great Books I through ETS, paper conferences are designed to supplement the Great Books course work and aid students in becoming thoughtful and articulate writers. Writing guidance will cover areas ranging from mechanics and vocabulary, to the development of coherent, compelling arguments. Paper conferences are held online or via telephone. Paper conferences for students not enrolled in Great Books I may be arranged on a case by case basis. |
