MAKING THE FILM SERVE AN INSTRUCTIONAL PURPOSE
The film service is organized for the schools and supplied in four circuits. In alternating schools (modified Gary) films are shown one day per week, lasting all day, in the auditorium. In other schools having a projection outfit, films are shown once in two weeks. In schools having no permanently installed ^machines, films are shown as the occasion demands by a portable outfit. About 25,000 feet of film are received in the office of the Department of Visual Instruction each week; inspected, titled, assembled, and a digest made covering each film. The following suggestions regarding the use of the film
haVe been embodied in a circular and sent to the schools.
(1) To make the showing of a film educational, it is necessary to have a reaction upon it — a development of impressions made by it.
(2) A digest of the film (assembling of the titles together with suggestions as to its use) will be sent to the school previous to the showing. One copy of the digest should be filed in the principal's office and as many teachers supplied with copies as can profitably use the subject matter shown in the film.
(3) The digest will be an aid to the teachers in reviewing the film. Pupils should be trained to observe the film carefully, noting how the picture visualizes and makes real the situations as set forth in the titles. It is hoped that teachers will recognize that the film will be a rich source for language material.
