BoB For AI

A Learning on Screen Project

Exploring the potential in our archive of over 2.7 million television and radio broadcasts – the BoB archive – as a resource for data science research, particularly in the field of Artificial Intelligence.

Exciting New Partnership!

Film Clubs for Co-Curricular Pedagogical Interventions

A new project at Warwick University looks at the potential effectiveness of using films to support the teaching and learning of qualitative and quantitative research as a method of inquiry in education. Lead by Ninna Makrinov, Assistant Professor at WMG, the research focuses on students' perceptions and the data will be collected through surveys and focus groups. 

Ninna Makrinov says: "BoB has made this project possible, as its terms and conditions allow films to be screened in movie clubs for educational and non-commercial purposes”.

Kerry-Jane Packman, Learning on Screen CEO, says: "Our faith in the potential of moving image and sound to enhance teaching, learning and research is unwavering so we will be following this research closely, publishing regular updates on the project as it develops and helping to disseminate its findings once it has concluded."
