Motion Picture Education is a book written by Ernest A. Dench and first published in 1917. The book is a comprehensive guide to the use of motion pictures in education, covering topics such as the history of cinema, the technical aspects of film production, and the ways in which films can be used to enhance learning in a variety of subjects. Dench begins by tracing the development of motion pictures from their origins in the late 19th century, through the silent era and the introduction of sound, up to the latest innovations in film technology. He then delves into the technical aspects of film production, explaining the various stages of the filmmaking process, from scripting and storyboarding to editing and distribution. The bulk of the book is devoted to exploring the educational potential of motion pictures. Dench discusses how films can be used to teach a wide range of subjects, including history, geography, science, and literature. He also provides practical advice on how to select and evaluate films for educational use, and offers suggestions for incorporating films into lesson plans and classroom activities. Throughout the book, Dench emphasizes the importance of using films as a supplement to, rather than a replacement for, traditional teaching methods. He argues that films can be a powerful tool for engaging students and bringing subjects to life, but that they should always be used in conjunction with other teaching materials and methods. Overall, Motion Picture Education is a valuable resource for educators, filmmakers, and anyone interested in the history and potential of cinema as an educational tool.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
