TWM is a collection of lesson plans and curriculum materials in which movies are employed to inspire, inform and motivate students. We want to make it easy for teachers to give their classes excellent lessons using movies. The goal: on the few occasions that movies are used in the classroom, the educational benefit for students will be maximized.
But TWM is really more than just a collection of curriculum materials. It’s a system for using film in the classroom. TWM has standard questions, standard assignments and an essay concerning the devices used in film that can be adapted to any movie.
