Summary/Abstract: After the formation of the Czechoslovak Republic, one of the priorities was the educational process with the aim of reflecting the democratic principles of the new state. From the beginning, the Ministry of Education and Public Information endeavoured to apply innovative elements in the content of educational programmes. The text concentrates on the production and use of short films as an important contribution to education in the republic, including the supervisory body: the Department for School Films. Attention is also devoted to terminological definition of the cultural – educational film.
