A is for Apple: Grading Achievement in Schools

Frog Hollow Neighbourhood House's exciting new Documentary -
A is for Apple: Grading Achievement in Schools

"An Eastside Vancouver high school launches a media campaign to counter its low marks on the Fraser Institute's annual school rankings. This sparks a community project to explore public education issues and mentor student volunteers in documentary filmmaking. Questioning the growing emphasis on standardized testing, A is for Apple tests the value of authentic learning experiences outside the classroom. Blending stylized interviews and behind-the-scenes coverage with archival footage, the film wryly uses the propaganda film form to encourage media literacy and youth citizenship; stimulating discussion about the purpose of education and its assessment."
