The course treats the issue of the Film Education, a rising of educational interest throughout European countries. Its goal is to increase the film or audiovisual literacy among children and young people, to make them more aware of the character of the audiovisual material they are in contact with daily, and to develop their creative abilities. We shall start with overviewing the current situation in the Czech Republic and Europe as a whole and discuss the meaning of the content of the Film Education. Then we focus more in depth on different parts of film: its (non)narrative character and film language, social and historical context of cinema – we shall discuss them in the context of their didactical potential. The students will be also involved in creative work throughout the semester, working on their own short film.

Kurz je věnován problematice Filmové vzdělávání, vzrůstajícímu zájmu o vzdělávání v evropských zemích. Jeho cílem je zvýšit filmovou nebo audiovizuální gramotnost mezi dětmi a mladými lidmi, zvýšit jejich povědomí o charakteru audiovizuálního materiálu, se kterým jsou denně v kontaktu, a rozvíjet jejich tvůrčí schopnosti. Začneme s přehledem současné situace v České republice a v Evropě jako celku a probereme význam obsahu filmového vzdělávání. Poté se hlouběji zaměříme na různé části filmu: jeho (ne) narativní charakter a filmový jazyk, společenský a historický kontext filmu - budeme o nich diskutovat v kontextu jejich didaktického potenciálu. Studenti se také zapojí do tvůrčí práce v průběhu semestru a pracují na vlastním krátkém filmu.
