Visions of the Future - Synthesis

We read excerpts from 1984 and Brave New World and explored their different visions of the future.

We paid close attention to the tone, setting, and characterization. Then we discussed the role of technology and what the different excerpts have to say about human nature.

This was part of our work on synthesizing ideas, which also included:

  • Reading a packet of poems and identifying common language and ideas
  • Viewing and working with a series of images and creating a narrative to unify them
