Find It In Film is dedicated to making accessible to educators, media specialists, and students the vast wealth of knowledge and inspiration provided by visual media. We believe that film and its closely related media provide a unique and powerful way to engage learners of all ages.
Watching visual media—like reading comics, enjoying popular music, or attending live theater—is often viewed as mere “entertainment” in our culture, and there’s nothing wrong with that. However, when this tendency obscures the degree to which such activities can be wed to effective learning, a critical opportunity is missed in the classroom. Our job is to support educators whose goal is the optimal use of visual media; we do this by providing them with the necessary information, resources, and strategies.
Our mission is to empower teachers, content area experts, and people with compelling personal experiences to share their knowledge, interests and passions with each other. We do this by leveraging the universal appeal of the moving image and its ability to make the unknown, the foreign, and the new vividly come to life in both mainstream and educational visual media.
