The Digital Media: Education MA explores the social and cultural dimensions of digital media in different formal and informal educational contexts. Our students have the opportunity to engage critically with cultural theories and qualitative research methods related to meaning-making, digital media practices, and technologies, including Artificial Intelligence (AI). We are, therefore, looking for students with a strong practical and social interest in fresh approaches to literacy and educational creative media practices in the digital age.
You will learn concepts related to everyday digital media use, media and AI literacy in educational settings, creativity, and popular culture, and how these are used by literacy, film and media educators in global contexts. Critical theory and creative practice are linked throughout the degree. Working alongside UCL and British Film Institute tutors, you will acquire skills in the reading and making of digital texts and artefacts, working creatively with a range of established and emerging media. You will also conduct your own independent research study, cultivating your own critical, scholarly voice as you explore a digital media topic of your choice.
