Book Presentation:
Film has become a cultural staple across the world. As with literature, film can be used to inform, entertain, inspire critical thinking, educate, and more. As such, it is a useful tool to implement in the classrooms of all levels and subjects. It is essential to explore the implementation of film in classrooms and the multiple teaching methodologies surrounding it. Enhancing Education Through Multidisciplinary Film Teaching Methodologies provides strategies that emphasize close reading, analysis, curricular connections, and composing through film. It examines both the theory and practice that surrounds the use of film in K-12 and post-secondary classroom instruction from a multidisciplinary perspective. Covering topics such as critical cultural awareness, literacy education, and film pedagogies, this premier reference source is an essential resource for preservice teachers, teacher educators, faculty and administrators of both K-12 and higher education, librarians, researchers, and academicians.
