EDDDE3122 Media Studies Curriculum 2
This course follows on from Media Studies 1 focusing on curriculum and pedagogy in the Media Studies specialist area for undergraduate pre-service teachers. The course continues to develop pre-service teachers' knowledge and skills related to the effective teaching of Media Studies at senior secondary school level. Pre-service teachers are acquainted with the assessment procedures of VCE Units 3 & 4, and examine how the curriculum frameworks can be used to design effective learning experiences and assessment tasks. Pre-service teachers will learn how to develop school students' understanding of the use of media codes and conventions to structure meaning as well as investigating the nature of communication between media and audiences.
