Abstract
In this article, I focus on a teacher Seki Takeshi, who was supposed to practice education using Film for the first time at the prewar Seijo Elementary School, by exhaustively examining discourse / practice records left in the educational journal, so far I will reconsider the relationships between prewar Film and education that were to be mentioned only limitedly. In particular, the reason for focusing on the Seki Takeshi’s film educational activities of Seijo Elementary School from 1925 to 1933 is that before 「UGOKU KAKEZU-RONSO」(the controversy about films as a wall chart). 「UGOKU KAKEZU-RONSO」 is the opportunity to foster a recursive discourse on the relationship between Japanese Audiovisual media and school education. Therefore, Seki Takeshi’s film educational activities is an important case with a possibility to suggest different possible forms other than the dualistic composition (Acceptance of films as works / Use of films as tools) in the relationship framework of film and education which is conventionally used during the war, from the war to the present. Seki Takeshi 's film education was not only a work appreciation, teaching tool, teaching material, but also interdisciplinary media practice that utilize the filmmaking activity as a series of 「acts」 such as preproduction, shooting, editing, screening, discussion as education. It was practice of new education with the film act as media.
