Coursework Time!!

Wooooooooooooooooooo examinations are done!! With a whole month to wait in anticipation before the results are published!


Now it's time to focus on that coursework.


To recap:
Y12 - A recreative piece on Othello (focusing on a minor character which offers a gap in the narrative to explore)


Y13 - A comparative essay of Orwell's '1984' and a text of your choice.




First drafts are due the first lesson back after half term. 
Keep checking back here for potentially useful sources etc

  1. The 'Anonymous' hacker group reminds me of the party in 1984.
    "Anonymous" have the intention to do good, but really they are enforcing their own ideals on democratic governments.

    The want to create a 'utopian' world over the original government whilst acting undemocratically is similar to what I believe a precursor to '1984' would be.

    The ideals of 'Anonymous' are also similar to the world of 'A Clockwork Orange', as they represent lawlessness, with - ironically - a wish for a lack of enforcement.

  2. I would recommend using Wikiquotes for ease of finding quotations.

  3. Yes I recommend you use Shmoop, it's very valuable for information. I love a bit of Shmoopyness with my Curry!
