Using Film in Teaching Sociology : Didactic and Methodical Analysis of the Film Do The Right Thing

Glavni je cilj ovog rada didaktičko-metodička obrada filma Učini pravu stvar iz 1989. godine, odnosno predstaviti nastavne materijale koji se mogu koristiti za obradu filma na nastavi sociologije s posebnim fokusom na promicanje ideje interkulturnog obrazovanja. Prvi dio rada predstavlja teorijski okvir vezan za suvremene procese poput globalizacije i migracije te njihovog utjecaja na konstrukciju identiteta i kulturnu reprodukciju u multikulturalnom društvu. Sljedeći dio rada analizira važnost promicanja ideje interkulturalizma u procesu podučavanja. Također, rad navodi pregled dosadašnjih teorijskih spoznaja vezanih za korištenje filma u nastavi sociologije s posebnim fokusom na njegove prednosti kao suvremenog alata u nastavi. Posljednji dio rada daje prijedlog nastavnog plana organiziranog u tri dijela: prije, tijekom i nakon gledanja filma. Naglasak je na kritičkoj analizi procesa modernizacije, multikulturalizma i društvene nejednakosti unutar filma, ali i u hrvatskome društvu.The main aim of this thesis is the didactic-methodical analysis of the movie Do the Right Thing from 1989.
