Media Studies - online lectures

These online lectures were written or co-written by me for the course CIU210 Media Studies at SAE Creative Media Institute. They are multimodal, designed to facilitate different learning styles, and are used in a flipped classroom model, with students completing them before coming to class.

MEDIA STUDIES TRADING CARDS

Based on the awesome 'Critical Theory Trading Cards' on theory.org.uk I developed some new cards related to Media Studies. I use them as completion badges - when a student finishes an online study component they are awarded a related theory card, with the hope they will be inspired to complete their own deck. 

'First Paragraph' Trading Cards

Similar to the Media Studies Trading cards, I award these for completing online content in a Master's level Research and Writing course. Each card features the first paragraph of a famous academic's work, with the idea of course of exposing them to some small samples of good writing.
