Ages

15–16

Duration

Short (1-4 activities)

In this range of resources, GCSE Film Studies teachers will find activities specifically designed to introduce set texts to their learners. Focusing on key areas from the exam specifications, students will be introduced to ideas about the film, analysing selected sequences and looking at film stills. Teachers are encouraged to use these activities before, and immediately after, screening the entire film. The final slides of the PowerPoint offer extension activities and ideas about how to continue your study of this film.

 

In this PowerPoint resource, which introduces The Hurt Locker, learners will investigate US independent films, learning about their characteristics. They will examine specialist writing about independent films and apply them to carefully selected highlights.

Updating our resources

We have developed a large catalogue of educational resources since launching in 2013, and some references and terminology will inevitably have dated as society and language evolves. We are aware of this and will be updating resources when our production schedule allows.

What our educators say

"As an alternative provision for learners who are not in mainstream school we use your resources in a slightly different way as they generally find it hard to watch a full length film. They are, however fantastic. "
