To give you a sense of how our Learning Guides can be used by teachers as lesson plans and by parents to supplement school curriculum or for homeschooling, we have set out below a paragraph of the Learning Guide to La Traviata.
Violetta was a member of the "demimonde," women who
gave their favors to wealthy "protectors" under arrangements that
were often contractual. Women of the demimonde were often independent and
sometimes lived lavishly. While the courtesans of the
demimonde had a social standing well below that held by
women of unquestioned "virtue" and respectability, they were
not considered prostitutes. The demimonde was an institution in France for
many decades.
The Learning Guide to La Traviata also contains sections on the Benefits of the film, Possible Problems, Helpful Background, Discussion Questions, Links to the Internet, and Bridges to Reading. The Discussion Questions are divided into three categories: Subject Matter, Social-Emotional Learning, and Moral-Ethical Emphasis.
