film for all children at
every age..
OTHER MODELS OF FILM EDUCATION
Film education as vocational skill – for screen industries and beyond
Film as media literacy: wider education in the image
Film as creative and expressive learning
Film as part of civic education – education in citizenship, tolerance, diversity
Film and heritage – national, European
Film and audience development – to support cinema going
FILM, ART AND COGNITION
Elliot Eisner, Arts and the Creation of Mind, 2002
The arts enable specific, unique types of thinking:
Flexible purposing
Judgement without rules
Using material as medium
Seeing the world aesthetically
Exercising the imagination
Visualising concepts
from le Cinema cent ans de jeunesse
