Abstract

This study takes an exploratory and qualitative approach in examining the necessity,
benefits and feasibility of a film literacy programme in the local context. It examines
the potential of using film to teach values and sociocultural insights in Singapore,
as well as the effectiveness of an ahistorical filmic and constructivist pedagogical
approach in teaching film literacy.
