Professional Development

We provide educators with all the tools you need to effectively teach with film. Knowing that resources for effective models for introducing media into the classroom are scarce, Journeys in Film has developed workshops to equip educators for success.

Participants return from our professional development workshops with teaching tools to better support their students and fellow educators. We offer a variety of workshops that can be customized. Here is a sample of what our workshops can cover.

Learn how to:

• Use film as a tool to engage students in active learning
• Make math, science, social studies, and visual arts lessons come alive with film
• Improve media literacy for learners
• Provide students with a global perspective

Our workshops are customized for your school’s needs:

• Receive instructions on how to incorporate film into subjects such as math, science, social studies, English, and the arts.
• Discover how to adapt our lessons for after-school and summer programs.
• Uncover administrative strategies for school and district-wide integration
• Explore team planning for program implementation

Our previous professional development partners include:

• Los Angeles Unified School District
• American Federation of Teachers
• Share My Lesson
• Prem Tinsulanonda International School
