Based on findings from a doctoral research study – and illustrated with an example from the film, it is argued that through dialogue, film can provide an inclusive and participatory site for learning where children are viewed as social agents, meaning-makers and co-constructors of knowledge.enCore Content FrameworkEnquiry-basedExperiential learningHistory educationLearningTeacher educationTalking outside the box: Film as a stimulus for dialogic engagement around social justice issuesArticleFORUM2025-02-2865
