Posters made by students, announcing that their Stop motion animated work produced by students
school was to start using cinema in the classroom in the classroom after reading the Los hijos del
Ayllu teaching guide

We liked the platform from the very beginning because, first of all, it allowed us a simple,
legal way to show movies in the classroom (it is only necessary to have a computer, a
projector, and a screen). Secondly, it was straightforward to find several works related
to the topic we wanted to work on, the 2030 Agenda and the Sustainable Development
Goals (SDGs). It has become a very useful tool for addressing the concept of Education
for Development and Social Transformation. Thirdly, it provided us with a simple and
helpful guide for teachers. The teaching guide, together with the information needed to
watch the movie, provided us with tips on how to analyze it and proposals for activities
to keep advancing in the classroom. It is not easy to find these three features together.

Conmigo vienen bailando
(Cristina Linares, 2017)

Just as we were beginning to get to know the platform, the lockdown arrived, and we
had to put several of our activities and projects on hold. However, we did have time to
see some of the works. Among them, I would like to highlight three short movies: Los
o
hijos del Ayllu, to work on SDG n 12 and 4 with 1st and 2nd-grade elementary students;
o
Conmigo vienen bailando, to teach SDG n 1 to 3rd and 4th-grade elementary students;
and Binta y la gran idea, to approach SDG n 10 and gender equality with 5th and 6th-
o
grade elementary students.
