Children are encouraged to express themselves, to challenge what is being said, and to ask questions that intrigue them. This program explores the concept and supporting methodology of P4C at Gallions Primary School in East London, where such sessions have had a strikingly positive impact on children's intellectual, emotional, and social development. ""It's changed the way I teach, it's changed the way the children are, it's changed the way the school is run. I think we owe it to the children to run philosophical enquiry,"" says Lisa Naylor, an advanced skills teacher at Gallions.","stream","[]","[]","['Effective teaching', 'Education', 'Child development', 'Educational psychology', 'Adolescence', 'Philosophy']","['Educational films']","https://cdnsecakmi.kaltura.com/p/1067292/sp/106729200/thumbnail/entry_id/0_ju5kv02f/version/100001/width/320","https://www.remote.uwosh.edu/login?url=https://fod.infobase.com/PortalPlaylists.aspx?wID=102638&xtid=40403" "fod100040402","","Bill Moyers Journal","","56 min 40 sec","[]","The financial industry has brought the nation’s economy to its knees—again.

George Soros on the Downturn / Dirty Politics ’08","","55 min 54 sec","[]","George Soros has been warning for years of a financial meltdown fueled by easy credit and sleepy regulation. In this edition of the Journal, Bill Moyers sits down with Soros—author of The New Paradigm for Financial Markets: The Credit Crisis of 2008 and What It Means—to talk about the global capital crisis, how he saw it coming, and what can be done about it now. And as the 2008 presidential campaigns continue to heat up, Moyers checks in with Kathleen Hall Jamieson, director of the Annenberg Public Policy Center, to talk about dirty politics and how it will likely play out in the final weeks before the election.

Punishing the innocent","[2009], c2008","26 min","[]","The horrific practice of honor killing still prevails in many Middle Eastern and Central Asian countries-and, as this film demonstrates, it is wielded not only against rape victims but also to punish women for simple romantic attachments. Going deep into tribal communities in rural Turkey, the video presents villagers who describe and condone honor killings that have occurred locally. Most chilling is a conversation with a man who murdered his own sister for the family's honor. The documentary also profiles potential victims of honor killing forced into hiding, often as a result of gossip and innuendo among neighbors, as well as critics of the ancient, brutal custom.","stream","[]","['Middle East']","['Social structure', 'Culture', 'Women', 'Equality', 'Female offenders', 'Sexism', 'Sex discrimination', ""Women's rights""]","['Educational films']","https://cdnsecakmi.kaltura.com/p/1067292/sp/106729200/thumbnail/entry_id/0_d5h4p2xs/version/100001/width/320","https://www.remote.uwosh.edu/login?url=https://fod.infobase.com/PortalPlaylists.aspx?wID=102638&xtid=39937" "fod100039933","","Bill Moyers Journal.

Empowering midwives in Mozambique","[2009], c2008","57 min","['The Wide Angle Collection: Human Stories, Global Issues']","Suffering from an acute shortage of doctors, Mozambique launched a bold grassroots initiative to combat its high maternal death rate: the training of midwives in surgical delivery-related techniques. In this program, Wide Angle reports from the region with an inspiring profile of a female midwife-in-training and tracks her progress as she learns to counter life-threatening complications of labor such as eclampsia, acute bleeding, and ruptures of the uterus and performs a C-section. Filmed in the operating room and during night shifts in the delivery ward, Birth of a Surgeon illustrates the much greater contribution to maternal and neonatal care that a surgically trained midwife can make in Mozambique. In addition, WHO Director-General Margaret Chan speaks with Aaron Brown about her pledge to give particular attention to the health of women and to healthcare in Africa.","stream","[]","['Africa, Sub-Saharan']","['First aid in illness and injury', 'Women', 'Working mothers']","['Educational films']","https://cdnsecakmi.kaltura.com/p/1067292/sp/106729200/thumbnail/entry_id/0_wj6v6uhv/version/100001/width/320","https://www.remote.uwosh.edu/login?url=https://fod.infobase.com/PortalPlaylists.aspx?wID=102638&xtid=39929" "fod100039928","","Japan's about-face.

In addition, unprecedented access to joint maneuvers with the U.S. Marine Corps, to surveillance flights over the Sea of Japan, and to the construction of the aircraft carrier Hyuga provides penetrating insights into the future of Asian geopolitics.","stream","[]","['Japan', 'Korea']","[]","['Educational films']","https://cdnsecakmi.kaltura.com/p/1067292/sp/106729200/thumbnail/entry_id/0_pnhye8jp/version/100001/width/320","https://www.remote.uwosh.edu/login?url=https://fod.infobase.com/PortalPlaylists.aspx?wID=102638&xtid=39928" "fod100039926","","Richard Serra. To see is to think","[2009], c2007","44 min","[]","Famous for sculptures that combine fluidity with monolithic bulk, Richard Serra favors two basic materials: compressed steel, which he manipulates in a factory setting, and the natural spaces found at his installation sites. This program takes viewers inside Serra's creative process while documenting his work at locations across the globe. Featuring detailed interviews with the artist-and with longtime associates, including composer Philip Glass and master rigger Ernst Fuchs-the film supports visual analysis of The Matter of Time at the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao as well as pieces installed in Berlin, Hamburg, New York, San Francisco, and many other cities.
