The Feature Film as an Instructional Medium.

Bailey, Debra H.; Ledford, Bruce R.

International Journal of Instructional Media, v21 n2 p147-54 1994

Current cognitive learning theory stresses the importance of observational learning and interactions with other people. Motion pictures have value for instruction for two reasons: film is a popular medium due to its visual format and its resulting sensory impact; and film is a form of vicarious interaction with other people.
