Cinema: a learning alternative
Journal Title: Trilogía Ciencia Tecnología Sociedad - Year 2019, Vol 11, Issue 20
Abstract
The role of ICTs in the evolution of the teaching-learning process has been key to the paradigm of promoting student creativity and innovation in the classroom and the language used by professors. The literature has demonstrated that cinema is an effective tool to teach contents because it expands the perception, complexity, and contextual reality of students. Besides, it enables to improve their critical skills and their ability to connect theory and practice. This article examines cinema as an ally of students and professors due to its very nature: it has its own language to connect the senses, emotions, and values that compose a well-rounded education and promote a more active participation in the classroom. Based on a cross-disciplinary literature review, this study aims at proposing educational guidelines to evaluate the relevance of adopting an appropriate method with scientific rigor to use movies for academic purposes. From the standpoint of educational innovation, the objective is to adapt models that students and professors will embrace, thus avoiding an empirical use.
