Workshop
Bojana Petrova and Vladimir Ignjatovic
Join us for a hands-on workshop where we demonstrate how to effectively use film fragments to teach critical thinking. We’ll provide practical tools for educators to help students not only interpret and critique these fragments but also understand how framing influences perception and argumentation. Using materials from our growing critical thinking toolbox, we’ll guide you in creating your own activity based on a pre-selected movie fragment, showing you how creative and inspiring the experience can be. You'll see how these tools can be adapted to suit your learning objectives and the needs of your students. Leave equipped with new, creative resources that will spark insightful discussions and critical analysis in your students.
Bojana Petrova, a Business Communications & Critical Thinking Lecturer, and Vladimir Ignjatovic, a Senior Lecturer in International Business, both at The Hague University of Applied Sciences, are key members of the FlickThink team.
Bojana’s focus is on inspiring curiosity and creativity in her students by implementing novel educational methods that extend beyond traditional teaching boundaries. She envisions FlickThink’s tools and ideas being adapted to various educational settings, allowing for a broader impact.
Vladimir, drawing on his background in a society that valued knowledge but often limited critical inquiry, is committed to helping students link factual knowledge with critical analysis. He emphasizes the importance of diverse perspectives and encourages his business students—future managers, entrepreneurs, and leaders—to challenge assumptions and develop independent thinking.
