Question Number 5

Questions 5–7 are based on the following passage. Many teachers across the country are noticing the importance of film in the modern classroom. No longer is putting a movie on meant as an invitation for students to check out while the teacher does work at their desk. Films are a versatile medium, and can function as textbooks, pieces of literature, or pieces of art that can bring a new dimension to a student’s learning. The teachers leading this charge know that teaching a film effectively means preparing lessons with the same amount of time and effort as any other days. A teacher could simply shut the lights and throw on the first 20 minutes of Steven Spielberg’s “Saving Private Ryan” because the class is studying World War II.

Which of the following is the author’s overall conclusion concerning teachers using film in the classroom?
