Teaching and assessment

This course is concerned with both the theoretical and the practical
dimensions of media, communication, and culture and film theory.
As well as familiar lecture and seminar formats, there is a strong
emphasis on making, doing and performing, both individually and in
groups. Methods of assessment therefore reflect the creative nature
of contemporary media, communications, culture and film. You will
complete traditional essays and examinations but are also assessed
by a range of individual and practical group projects such as photo
montage, film making, television news documentary, print editing
tasks, and website creation.
