To mark its 70^th anniversary in 2018 Learning on Screen (formerly the 
British Universities Film and Video Council) together with Birkbeck, 
University of London has organised a two-day conference exploring the 
history of teaching and learning with the moving image.

Circumstances earlier in the year led to a postponement of the 
conference to November. We have an exciting line-up of speakers and 
presentations, including keynote addresses from Dr Alex Southern and 
Patrick Russell, together with a roundtable on the history and legacy of 
the BUFVC / Learning on Screen and cinema showings of a selection of 
archive titles.

We have the opportunity to integrate a small number of additional 
presentations into the programme, and the organisers would welcome 
further proposals.

*Lights, camera, learning*aims to bring together film and television 
historians with those engaged with the history of educational practice 
and policy and with practitioners past and present, to explore how film 
and television with explicit educational aims has been argued for, 
produced, funded, distributed, shown, received, discussed and understood 
over the past century in Britain.

The conference will address in particular three strands of this history:

• Production, content and technologies of screen-based educational media;

• Classroom practice and pedagogies for the reception and use of film 
and television;

•  Policy debates and determinations about the place and value of moving 
image media in formal education.

Proposals for 20-minute panel papers are invited covering all aspects of 
the histories of teaching and learning in schools, universities and 
other institutions with and from moving image media.
