Visual Instruction
USE OF THE CINEMA. MONTHLY EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMMES. TO BE SCREENED FOR CHILDREN. (Special to “Tribune.”) Parliament Buildings, Sept. 25. A definite step in the use of the cinema in education has been taken by the Minister, the Hon U. J. Parr, who stated to-day that he was satisfied that some years would elapse before it was possible to iustal, in individual schools, a satisfactory scheme of visual instruction, and he therefore has adopted an alternative scheme. Arrangements have been made with a well-known agency to provide in as many centres as possible a programme of educational interest and approved by the Department. A small charge of threepence at sixpence • for admission will be made, but no child will be debarred on this account s from seeing the pictures. A monthly < screening on a Saturday afternoon is proposed ,and teachers will be told in advance the subject of the picture, so that they may use it in preliminary in- : struction. The agency has agreed to give five per cent of the* proceeds to 1 schools, and the Department will incur no expense.
