Hot Seating the War Photographer
As part of our IBDP 1 Language & Literature study of War Photographer by Carol Ann Duffy, students participated in a Hot-Seating Activity to explore the photographer’s emotions and ethical dilemmas.
Taking turns as war photographers and journalists, students engaged in thought-provoking discussions, analyzing the conflict between professional duty and personal impact. To deepen their understanding, they examined Nick Ut’s iconic “Napalm Girl” (1972), drawing connections between real-world war photography and Duffy’s critique of media desensitization.
This interactive session fostered critical thinking, empathy, and literary analysis, making the poem more impactful and relevant to students.
