Individual Research Assignments!
You will be expected to research and present, for the group, a case study of how Web 2.0 has affected production, distribution and audience consumption in a particular area of media. You should focus on examples from specific media institutions and organisations; and you will be assigned particular industries to investigate, as follows:
Jack: Games Industry
Matthew: Radio
Dave: Music Industry
Luke: Film Industry
You can share the results of your research with the group in various ways - as a blog entry; as a Power Point presentation; as an oral lecture, live or pre-recorded ( 10 minutes approx)
The purpose of this blog is to encourage my students at the Royal National College for the Blind to investigate the effects of digital technology on media production and distribution -one of the topics on the OCR A Level course, which also involves debates about media and post-modern culture.
