Question 1

What will I learn in British Literature?

Accepted Answer

Students are consolidating and internalizing the core skills of the ELA HTLS as they near the end of their
high school careers, fulfilling the vision of a college- and career-ready individual with strong twenty-first
century literacy skills and the ability to think critically. They undertake close, attentive reading of complex
works of literature and informational texts and are able to navigate confidently through significant amounts
of information in a variety of formats. Students continue to develop a very broad vocabulary that includes
content-specific and technical terms along with a fluent and sophisticated grasp of the English language.
Their growing understanding of the nuances of language will aid them in analyzing an author’s point of
view, recognizing the rhetorical elements of an argument, and in the development of tone and mood in works
of literature. Students at this level of development will apply their critical thinking skills to the comparison
and analysis of a variety of works in different artistic and digital mediums, and to the transformation of
classical source works such as Shakespeare or Homer into modern pieces. Students are able to identify and
understand the interplay of more than one central idea within a single text, appreciating the way that ideas
can build upon one another to achieve a complexity of thought. Students at this level can effectively evaluate
primary and secondary source material from a variety of resources including digital resources and historic
documents. Students can introduce and support arguments with valid reasoning, use accepted formatting and
citation styles with ease, and convey complex ideas effectively using appropriate structures. Sustained
research projects are commonplace, and students are comfortable presenting findings to both large and small
groups in multi-modal formats.
