Planned on the realization that teen-agers have a strong influence on younger children, this experiment proposes to use high school girls to assist with a foods unit developed by the use of films and designed to improve food acceptance and reduce plate waste in some of the elementary grades.

Sob uma abordagem metodológica qualitativa de natureza interpretativa, analisa-se e se interpretam o objeto de estudo: filmes como estratégia de ensino para a promoção da ACT (Alfabetização Cientifica e Tecnológica).

We used the film as text, image and sound, and sought to present the studies that justify as a strategy for teaching and learning in the classroom and providing reflections on the social relations of science and technology. The main results show that using feature films is an effective teaching strategy for working with the CTS approach.

The purpose of this study was to test assumptions made about characteristics of nontheatrical film and video works that were thought to contribute to the frequency with which the works were purchased. This study proposed and tested three variables for which relationships to the sales success of nontheatrical film and video works were hypothesized, as well as four variables about which no hypotheses were forwarded. Nineteen film and video distribution organizations contributed unit sales data for the period 1982-1987 on 151 works copyrighted between 1982 and 1984. These data were analyzed for relationships between sales totals and 1) curricular significance of the works' subjects, 2) relevance to general reading interest in the works' subjects, 3) intensity of competition faced by the works, 4) the works' Dewey classifications as compared to the composition of typical K-12 school library book collections, 5) the series or non-series status of the works, 6) the media format(s) in which the works were available for purchase and 7) the sources of the works' production financing. Analyses of correlation and association were performed and no significant relationships were found between sales and curricular significance of the works' subjects, or their relevance to general reading interest. Some evidence was presented to suggest a significant association between the intensity of competition faced by a work and its eventual sales. None of the hypotheses about these variables was supported. However, the four remaining variables were found to be significant, or to approach significance, as correlates or associates of sales success. The best predictor of sales for works intended for the K-12 school market was the work's Dewey Decimal classification. Other important findings included associations between high sales and intense product competition, between high sales and non-series status, between high sales and availability for purchase in 16mm film and between high sales and works that had been financed by the distribution organization.

Grandy's Country Cookin' Inc. is a chain of restaurants specializing in fried chicken dinners. standardized instructional films were needed to teach employees Grandy's operational procedures. The producer was commissioned to make five films to provide visual job descriptions for new employees and managers. These fast-paced films depict actual job situations: "Chicken Cutting," "Breakfast Preparation," "Customer Relations," "System of Operation," and "Drive-Thru Relations," "System of Operation," and "Drive-Thru Service." An accompanying production book describes the making of Grandy's Training. The book examines the background against which the project was proposed, details the problems and procedures of production, and describes the experience of dealing with a client at a professional level.

O recorte temporal escolhido, entre 1958 e 1972, refere-se, respectivamente, à criação do Cine-clube do Centro Dom Vital e ao final das atividades da Escola Superior de Cinema. Objetivou-se analisar as relações entre a atuação nestas duas instituições católicas - a primeira relacionada à formação cultural cinematográfica e a segunda, à tentativa de implantação de uma formação prática - às concepções católicas com relação ao cinema na época, presentes em textos pontificais, de organizações internacionais católica de cinema, em especial o OCIC (Office Catholique International du Cinéma), ou ainda de militantes católicos brasileiros que trabalharam em prol do apostolado cinematográfico - leigos ou do clero. Além disso, relacionaram-se as atividades promovidas pelas duas instituições à formação de futuros críticos, teóricos de cinema e cineastas sem qualquer relação com a ideologia cristã. Desta forma, compreendeu-se ainda como se dava a relação entre militância católica e críticos desvinculados desta ideologia, e instituições católicas e laicas em função de uma melhor compreensão do fenômeno cinematográfico e de uma consolidação da cultura cinematográfica em São Paulo, e no Brasil. Como metodologia, utilizou-se em grande parte fontes primárias, além da bibliografia secundária e de textos de embasamento teórico com relação à escrita histórica a partir destas fontes. Os resultados do trabalho demonstraram que apesar de terem sido criadas a partir de intenções católicas claramente baseadas nas diretrizes de então, inclusive no que se refere à metodologia de trabalho, nas atividades do Cine-clube do Centro Dom Vital e da Escola São Luis, o campo cinematográfico sobressaiu-se aos ideais do campo religioso. / Abstract: This research aimed to comprehend the work of the Catholic church within the cinematographic field in São Paulo, regarding specifically the activities of Centro Dom Vital and Escola Superior de Cinema São Luis. The period chosen, between 1958 and 1972, refers to the creation of Cine-clube do Centro Dom Vital and the closure of Escola Superior de Cinema. Its purpose was to analize the relations between these catholic institutions-the first related to the consolidation of a cinematographical culture and, the second, to the attempt of implementing a practical education-and the catholic conceptions regarding the film culture of the period, present in texts written by popes, by international catholic cinema organizations, specially the OCIC (Office Catholique International du Cinéma), or by the Brazilian Catholics militants working for the cinema apostolate - of the laicity or clergy. It also linked the activities of these instituitions to the appearance of future film critics, film theoreticians and film makers wihtout any connection with the christian ideology. This way, it also understood how the relation between the Catholic militancy and critics unnatached of such ideology took place, so between Laic and Catholic Institutions, in order to understand the cinematographic phenomena and its consolidation in São Paulo and in Brazil. This research used in its methodology a great part of primary sources, a secundary bibliography and theoretical texts regarding the historical writtings based on such sources. The results demonstrated that even though these institutions were created with catholic intentions based on the lines of directions of the period, including the methology work, in the activities of Cine-clube Centro Dom Vital and Escola São Luis the cinematographic experience surpassed the ideals of religion. / Mestrado / Mestre em Multimeios

Films have been used with varying degrees of success to influence the attitudes of pupils of different ages and interests. Little has been done, however, to measure the attitudes of girls in high school homemaking classes. It is the purpose of this study to use films as an integral part of a group relationships unit and to determine what attitude changes, if any, are directly attributable to film content.
