In this episode I draw two lessons from Jaws that we can apply to drama in learning: 1. How story builds context toallow a viewer to create their own meaning2. How to create character conflict without painting either character as “bad”.
Episode 3, The Shawshank Redemption
April 21, 2022
The Shawshank Redemption is a redemption plot. This is a genre of film that looks back over life events in flashback with a voice-over and, of course, ends with a redemption. This is similar to story structures often used in L&D –when something goes wrong,and a characterreflects on it in flashback. I bring out the tropes so we can credibly work in this genre.
