- Abstract
The article examines the effective use of sound motion pictures in the teaching of biology in secondary education. The selection of films by high school science teachers for instructional purposes is based upon criteria other than appealing titles or glowing catalogue descriptions. According to the article, four pivotal objectives are subscribed by science teachers including acquisition of factual information in science, understanding and application of the elements of the scientific method together with its associated attitudes and skill in the basic tools peculiar to a specific science such as in chemistry, the use of apparatus, ability to write formulas and balance equations and to work on problems based on formulas and balanced equations.
