... that the 1923 book Motion Pictures in Education is among the first major works about using films to teach students? Source: "In the summer of 1923, Laura Thornborough and Don Carlos Ellis published Motion Pictures in Education, a book instructing teachers in how to use films in their classrooms. The book is cited by scholars of educational film as one of the first major works focused on the subject." - The Unwritten Record
Overall: Straightforward, trouble-free nomination about an obscure but notable work. I have however tweaked the hook to add the word "major" to conform appropriately with the sources. Gatoclass (talk) 03:11, 2 July 2022 (UTC)Reply
