What will be in the course?
Students develop media literacy and production skills. They research, discuss and analyse media issues, and interact with, and create media products. Students explore the role of media in Australian and global contexts, and how media can exert a significant influence on the way people receive and interpret information about the world, explore their own and other cultures, make economic choices, develop political ideas, and spend their leisure time.
