Title | Bringing the World to Your Classroom through Film |
Body | What if you could take your students to all corners of the globe and introduce them to the people and ways of life in a different country - and be back by lunchtime? These days, with a wealth of foreign DVDs readily available, foreign films can be a meaningful and effective teaching tool. The very ability of films to immerse audiences "increases the need for an analytic approach," according to Tanya Lee, Program Director of the Asian Educational Media Service (AEMS). With a few guidelines as well as savvy use of resources, educators can choose an engaging and age-appropriate international film with high artistic merit and effective cultural insight, and effectively integrate it into the curriculum.
