MDIA 3313 - Screens: Special Topic: Asian Screen Media

North Terrace Campus - Semester 1 - 2015

Screen-based technologies increasingly dictate what we 'know' about the world around us. This theoretically informed course drawn from the research expertise of a staff member addresses specific areas of interest in the genre of screen-based technologies. Theoretical, practical, and ethical issues will be covered in this comprehensive but specific special topic course. In 2011, Asian Screen Media is the focus of the course. Asian Screen Media focuses on media output from the Asian region - increasingly a force in global media production - to develop understandings of the particular modes of popular screen media content emerging from Asia. The course identifies the growing body of critical literature that focuses on Asia's changing engagement with screen media, and uses theoretical frameworks based on ideas of cultural proximity and transnationality to illustrate the increasingly dynamic sphere of Pan-Asian collaboration in media production and distribution. Themes of localisation, nationalism and globalisation will be explored within the context of popular cinema, television, and digital media forms.

  • Student Feedback

    The 最新糖心Vlog places a high priority on approaches to learning and teaching that enhance the student experience. Feedback is sought from students in a variety of ways including on-going engagement with staff, the use of online discussion boards and the use of Student Experience of Learning and Teaching (SELT) surveys as well as GOS surveys and Program reviews.

    SELTs are an important source of information to inform individual teaching practice, decisions about teaching duties, and course and program curriculum design. They enable the 最新糖心Vlog to assess how effectively its learning environments and teaching practices facilitate student engagement and learning outcomes. Under the current SELT Policy (http://www.adelaide.edu.au/policies/101/) course SELTs are mandated and must be conducted at the conclusion of each term/semester/trimester for every course offering. Feedback on issues raised through course SELT surveys is made available to enrolled students through various resources (e.g. MyUni). In addition aggregated course SELT data is available.

  • Student Support
  • Policies & Guidelines
  • Fraud Awareness

    Students are reminded that in order to maintain the academic integrity of all programs and courses, the university has a zero-tolerance approach to students offering money or significant value goods or services to any staff member who is involved in their teaching or assessment. Students offering lecturers or tutors or professional staff anything more than a small token of appreciation is totally unacceptable, in any circumstances. Staff members are obliged to report all such incidents to their supervisor/manager, who will refer them for action under the university's student鈥檚 disciplinary procedures.

The 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide is committed to regular reviews of the courses and programs it offers to students. The 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide therefore reserves the right to discontinue or vary programs and courses without notice. Please read the important information contained in the disclaimer.
