Stresses the advantages and importance of using films as means of education.
The speaker voices the opinion that pupils who get the opportunity to watch
high quality films, are likely to develop a good taste and will be drawn
towards less commercial films later in their lives. Films also offer the
opportunity to explore unfamiliar surroundings or habits in a unique way.
Children who live in towns, for instance, can be introduced to country life.
Movement can be recorded on film, which is particularly useful for the study of
anatomy and the movement of animals. Special techniques such as
stop-motion photography can enable the human eye to witness the growth of
plants, which would be impossible otherwise. Diagrams and animations also
prove to be useful tools for illustrating various subject-matters.
