Program Overview

Professional Practice in Screen Education

This Professional Practice in Screen Education course builds upon the technical skills you developed in Filmmaking in the Classroom.

This course will support you to design, deliver, and evaluate a filmmaking project in your educational setting with young learners. You will lead in the learning on a short filmmaking project, rolling out technical and creative skills to your learners. This course will develop you in creative, educational, and evaluative skills in order for you to manage the project, assess the needs of your learners, work with them to create a short film, monitor the project, track early impacts, and reflect on professional standards and practice.

This short course is the third course of three which, on successful completion of all three, will enable you to attain a PgCert Film and Screen Education. The course must be completed in the following order: 

1. Introduction to Film Education

2. Filmmaking in the Classroom

3. Professional Practice and Screen Education
