- W177058574 abstract "The January 23, 1932, issue of School and Society calls attention to experiments with the use of talking films in education now being carried on in the junior high schools of Lynn, Quincy, and Revere, Massachusetts. These tests, designed to show whether instruction in science can be improved through the aid of films, are, it is believed, the first attempted anywhere. The tests were devised by the Harvard Graduate School of Education to which the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Science has made a grant of $25,000 'for determining the value of mechanical aids in education.' The experiment will continue for six weeks. During that period 300 students will be instructed with both films and textbooks, and an even larger control group will be instructed with textbooks alone. At the end of the period both groups will take tests to determine the effectiveness of the instruction. Material has been prepared for eight units of study, six from the University Film Foundation in Cambridge and two from the Western Electric Company. The films deal with physiography and biology as presented in the course in general science given in the last year of junior high school. Each unit consists of a chapter of text, together with a talking film presenting the fundamentals of the subject. Preliminary tests of the students to determine their knowledge of general science, etc., were prepared by Dr. Phillip J. Rulon, instructor in education at the Harvard Graduate School of Education." @default.
