This paper argues that teaching is inspirational when it has a positive impact on policy and social and cultural life within and outside a university and at national and international levels. Focusing on two empirical case studies this paper aims to critically reflect upon the ways in which the discipline of Film Studies uses active learning strategies to create national and international level impact and public engagement opportunities for students. The paper will detail learning and teaching journeys while offering colleagues ways in which they may engage with the Parliament and non-academic communities while using these connections for the benefit of students.
