REEL to REAL (R2R): Learning English and Developing 21st Century Skills through Film-making in Key Stage 2

The Seed project, REEL to REAL (R2R): Learning English and Developing 21st Century Skills through Film making in Key Stage 2, aims to explore ways to use film making as a means of motivating and supporting primary students to learn English as a second language.

The objectives of the Seed project are to:

• Design integrated learning activities which provide opportunities for students to develop and apply a range of language, digital literacy and generic skills
• Create opportunities for students to be not only consumers, but also creators skilled in using art and technology, through the learning and teaching of cinema to enhance and extend literacy skills
• Facilitate the development of students’ generic skills and 21st century skills
• Promote effective use of assessment for learning, as learning and of learning, among teachers
• Evaluate the impact of film making on the learning, teaching and assessment of English as a second language
