EDUCATIONAL FILMS— TYPES AND USES 11
A Director of Visual Education
From the time the school system starts visual instruction, it should appoint a director of visual instruction to care for and distribute the slides, films, machines, and other apparatus of the course ; the films should be ordered far enough in advance, and each teacher should be notified when the showings are to be made, and should receive in advance the synopses and notes accompanying the films that are to be supplied.
The ideal prerequisite to a classroom film showing is for the teacher to have an opportunity to see the film before the children do, so she can select the parts for emphasis or slight treatment, and frame her questions and follow-up work accordingly. But unless the teacher can run the machine herself it requires twice the amount of time from the operator ; a good plan is for each room in the upper grades to have one boy or girl who has been trained to thread and operate the projector. * Learning to do this is a simple matter of an hour 's instruction, and the running of several practice reels through the machine.
In one system, reported to the author, the teachers assemble at the beginning of the school year, and once a month during the year at a designated time to view the group of films for the coming months, synopses of the films are distributed and as the pictures are reeled off, the teachers have the opportunity of making any notes they may desire.
* For this and other reasons (see Appendix) a portable projector is recommended for school use.
