age rating of films

H oy for today, both teachers and parents we met few tools with which to orient ourselves on the characteristics of a film when determining whether it is suitable for our students or children.

the parent or teacher to see the movie before putting their children or students is the most logical choice, but sometimes lacking external guidance on issues not only related to the minimum age desirable, but on other variables, such as thematic approaches, use of violence or sex, teaching recommendations, etc. , which are more useful than mere recommendation by age. However, in Spain, the movie ratings is fixed only by these categories:

Approved for all audiences
Not recommended for children under 7 years
Not recommended for children under 13 years
Not recommended for children under 18 years
X Movie , refused access to under eighteen

The general director of the Insti Institute of Cinematography and Audiovisual Arts (ICAA) want to change this situation and find a more informative classification, similar to that now offer video games (PEGI ). In addition, the age range between 13 and 18 is very vague, da q ue do children change a lot in that age bracket. used video games in the age group of 3, 7, 12, 16 and 18, and symbols of the fist (violence), syringe (drugs), etc. In addition, when you buy a video game there is a distinctive color:

green : 3 to 7 years
yellow: between 12 and 16 years
red : age 18 years

The law regulates the whole issue is the Royal Decree 81/1997 (there is also another law for television programs, the Royal Decree 410/2002 ). In Chapter IV, sets standards which must be guided by the qualification commission must watch all the movies. This committee may belong to whoever wants to, but not more than two years. Given the huge list of films that are released each day in Spain, this committee did not have time to see them all and for this reason we often see the typical "age rating yet."

Before being marketed, the film be presented at the ICAA or the competent Autonomous Community for its classification by age group. The Committee on Motion Picture Score is the advisory body responsible for viewing them. The qualification tie ne for guidance, except the movies X, to be displayed only in special rooms called X Salas.

However, the age rating system is insufficient for the educator who lacks an educational support assistant to accompany any proposed audiovisual. These suggestions should be given from the Ministry of Education or the various Ministries of Education and with the advice of teachers who work with visual diarimente in their classrooms.

Among many other aspects, it is essential to highlight some initial guidance:

- level of understanding that requires students : according to the different stages and s cycle education.

- Nationality original language dubbing and subtitles : easy job especially in areas of language, especially if it includes a difficulty rating of the dialogues or measured by observation on slang, idioms and linguistic contexts.

- Topics addressed: can locate areas and contents that are more suitable for viewing in the classroom. The topics should be classified not only by educational areas, but also specific content. If we add scenes recommended in each case, the aid is multiplied.

- technical and artistic as well as links to sites supporting : can get basic information about the film. The sites would support an effective complement.
