Our Educational Outreach
EDUCATIONAL LEGACY
View MacGillivray Freeman Films’ educational outreach programs. Each aims to enhance learning on topics addressed in our IMAX films and to increase interest in science, the environment and world culture—inspiring new attitudes and positive action.
Measuring the success of each film’s educational impact is an important part of what we do. Research shows that our films dramatically increase not only a person’s knowledge about a particular subject, but also his or her desire to learn even more.
TESTIMONIALS
MacGillivray Freeman’s commitment to scientific accuracy, as well as the impact these films have in influencing public understanding and awareness, is recognized here. Viewers are inspired, becoming more sensitive to environmental issues. And educators find our films present science concepts in an awe-inspiring and yet understandable way for the young learner.
THE TRUSTWORTHINESS OF OUR MEDIUM AND EXHIBITORS
Our films play in the world’s most renowned science centers, natural history museums, space centers and aquariums. Many of these institutions provide programs to support K–12 science education and student field trips that feature an IMAX film screening, serving many schools and impacting millions of students.
FUN LEARNING RESOURCES
Interactive educational activities broaden the learning experience of each film. Find out what you can do to conserve water and discover lessons on avalanches, cave ecology, coral reef creatures and dolphin strandings—just to name a few! Share a Family Fun Guide, play interactive games, visit a virtual reef, test your knowledge and learn what it takes to become a marine biologist.
