Andrew Goodwyn's straightforward approach to teaching about the moving image de-mystifies this topic and shows how it can be easily incorporated into classroom practice. The first of its kind, this book builds on teachers' knowledge of teaching about advertising, newspapers and visual adaptations of literary texts, and provides practical advice and guidance on: * Adaptations: not just the film of the book * Teaching film * Teaching television * Practical work * New technologies and the moving audience. This jargon-free book will be a stimulating and useful guide to teachers and student teachers looking to improve their knowledge of the moving image and its recent arrival in secondary school teaching.
This book investigates the pedagogical integration of moving image media into secondary school English curricula to enhance student literacy and critical analysis. Andrew Goodwyn, an experienced educator, addresses the gap in teacher training regarding visual media by providing a structured framework for incorporating film, television, and digital content into traditional classroom settings. The text argues that moving images should be treated with the same analytical rigor as print literature, offering teachers a practical methodology to bridge the divide between traditional text-based instruction and modern visual culture.
