Here’s What Previous Students Have to Say About Clockworks Academy!
Whew, where to start? I learned so many intricate and incredible facets about the function, fears, and fascination that we have with American zombies. We traced their inspirations, modern inception in Romero's films, and interpreted their criticisms on human society, capitalism, and so much more. As a creative writer I have loved every moment of watching films, reading books, and digging into graphic novels. As an academic the care and depth of our seminars, incorporation of audio visuals, and conversations throughout the week have been incredible, striking a perfect balance between accessible and graduate level academic quality…
This is a university level course for a minute fraction of the cost! The lectures do an incredible job synthesizing the reading so the student never feels alone.
I took this course because I'd been thinking about taking a class of some kind, but I didn't know what I wanted to do. I'm a fan of Dr. Moffett's podcasts, and I was excited about the idea of a course on Monsters. I found the course interesting, challenging, and enjoyable. Dr. Moffett knows his stuff, and has a great sense of humor. 10/10
