Course summary
This programme provides the opportunity to explore and understand the ways that the key concepts of Media Studies and Film Studies are taught at secondary school and at post-16 level.Media is a powerful and democratising subject that develops young people’s critical thinking skills. You’ll learn about approaches for teaching the current formal media curriculum and ways of drawing on students’ own media experiences to enhance their understanding. We will look at ways that teachers can adapt their teaching to reflect the changing media landscape and how practical work can be used to enhance students understanding of theoretical ideas.You will have the opportunity to learn at the English and Media Centre, where much of this programme’s teaching will take place.You will gain an understanding of the different media and film related courses taught across KS4 and 5 and develop your media production skills. You will observe expert teachers tackling key issues in media and cultural studies related to semiotics, genre, narrative, representation (gender and race), audience, media industries, ideology, post-modernism, and auteur theory and spectatorship in Film studies. You will also begin teaching these academic ideas on school placement.The course also looks at the role of media education and media literacy more broadly, examining policy and practices in relation to issues such as resilience to media messaging, digital citizenship and positive online participation.
