In every case, it is important for the instructor to view a film in advance of a class screening to become familiar with the
material and determine how it can best be used to further instructional goals. Once a film has been identified as having instructional
value, it can be used in one of several ways:
In class: Segments or complete films may be shown in class to illustrate points about a single topic (e.g., defense-arousing
communication, self-disclosure) or to preview and/or review the entire course or major units.
In the college media center: Most campuses have a media center where students can view segments or entire films, and if
desired complete workbook assignments.
As homework: Class members can all view the same film on their own time, or they may choose a variety of titles from a pre-
approved list in order to complete an analytical assignment.
Available to Adopters of Looking Out/Looking In, Fourteenth Edition
A film guide, Communication in Film III: Teaching Communication Courses Using Feature Films, prepared by Russ Proctor,
describes how a wide array of movies can be used to illustrate how concepts from Looking Out/Looking In appear in realistic
situations. This guide takes advantage of students’ inherent interest in the medium of film, showing them how movies can be
both entertaining and educational.
