Sociology, Psychology and Criminology
Bringing social science and study skills films to the classroom for over 20 years.
ShortCutstv is Dr. Steve Taylor, an experienced scriptwriter, university lecturer and author and Chris Livesey, a former lecturer, textbook author and film editor plus an associated cast of Presenters, Camera Operators, film editors and people we like to have around.
Our aim is to create affordable films for A-level and High School teachers and lecturers that inform and challenge students in ways that conventional textbooks just can’t reach.
Our films are designed to fit into your existing teaching by introducing key concepts, theories, methods, issues and debates in ways that stimulate student interest and encourage them to explore interesting and sometimes difficult ideas.
But our films aren’t just about delivering the right content at the right level.
They’re about delivering informative, thought-provoking and engaging content that helps students visualise and comprehend sometimes complex ideas in ways that other teaching methods can’t always reach.
So, if you’d like to buy – and keep forever – any of our Sociology, Psychology, Criminology or Study Skills films they’re all available through our On-demand streaming service.
Alternatively, if you just want to show a film as a one-off classroom experience it’s available for 7-day rental for $1 (around 75p).
And if you want to stream any film in our our complete film library, we’ve got you covered with our Social Science Film Club subscription service available for $33 (around £25+vat) a year.
And if you want to try before you buy, the first month is absolutely free.
