Universities around the world now actively encourage academics to
engage in public scholarship, publishing in traditional and new
media - newspapers, television, radio, blogs and social media.
Education Research and the Media addresses this situation, using
empirical and reflexive accounts, to interrogate and advance the
ways in which this shift is usually discussed. Drawing on
Australian and international scholars and contexts, this edited
collection probes the effects of these engagements. Taken together,
the book offers new conceptualisations of the junctures and
disjunctures of local, national and transnational mediascapes in
education research, working across both traditional media and
social media platforms. The book takes as its starting point that
traditional national media, while still significant, are now
embedded in practices and discourses that transcend geographic and
spatial boundaries. Global media logics challenge the profitability
and operations of media corporations, as the production of news and
information is paradoxically both democratised and fragmented.
There is a limited body of research about how this mediatised
landscape impacts on public scholarship. This is the first book in
the field of education to systematically investigate this
landscape, using empirical examples and analysis, as well as a
range of theoretical and conceptual approaches.
