Ill-concieved notion?

In February of 2008, I took it upon myself to create a course at the high school in which I work. I felt that in our current educational system that the needs of all our students were no being met and that apparently I did not have enough work to do. After studying film in University, I thought that a good idea to get students interested in writing and reading again would be to get them to read and write about film. Everybody watches movies, whether they are downloaded, on television or you actually get out to the theatre. I thought that this would be relevant topic that would unite students on some level and would give me the chance to teach something that I have always loved. This might have been more of a challenging prospect than I had first thought.
