I have taught this class for over five years and at least twice each fall and winter semester, so over 20 times, and I plan on continuing teaching variations of it for the foreseeable future. It is an excellent vehicle for teaching the following concepts: Free Will, Justice, Morality, Sacrifice, Ethics, Punishment, Terrorism, Heroism, Courage, and Moral Responsibility.
I often change the texts, and in this version of the course, I taught the following: Plato’s Apology, No Country for Old Men, Frankenstein, Blade Runner, and The Dark Knight.

The ELA Common Core State Standards require students to learn how to read texts carefully:
“As a natural outgrowth of meeting the charge to define college and career readiness, the Standards also lay out a vision of what it means to be a literate person in the twenty-first century. Indeed, the skills and understandings students are expected to demonstrate have wide applicability outside the classroom or workplace. Students who meet the Standards readily undertake the close, attentive reading that is at the heart of understanding and enjoying complex works of literature. They habitually perform the critical reading necessary to pick carefully through the staggering amount of information available today in print and digitally. They actively seek the wide, deep, and thoughtful engagement with high-quality literary and informational texts that builds knowledge, enlarges experience, and broadens worldviews. They reflexively demonstrate the cogent reasoning and use of evidence that is essential to both private deliberation and responsible citizenship in a democratic republic. In short, students who meet the Standards develop the skills in reading, writing, speaking, and listening that are the foundation for any creative and purposeful expression in language.” English Language Arts Standards | Home | English Language Arts
