It is to be understood that these principles are subject to alteration and correction as more Objective evidence is Obtained. They do, however, summarize and apply the best knowledge Obtained up to the present to guide us in the choice Of motion picture material for use in the social studies.In presenting a set of criteria against which social studies films may be checked, the writer has drawn upon the large amount of literature available on this subject.
