The broadcasting industry's ongoing transition to digital
technology raises significant questions for higher education, ones
relating to appropriate curriculum design, the teacher/student
relationship, legal issues, media convergence, and funding. This
new collection of essays offers guidance to faculty,
administrators, and scholars alike, offering innovative ideas on
ways in which programs can excel in each area. In so doing,
"Technological Issues in Broadcast Education" illuminates the
educational settings that have been created and enhanced by the
emergence of new broadcast-related technologies as well as the
impact of these technologies on the missions of broadcasting
programs.
Subjects covered in the volume include the digital revolution,
curriculum revisions, online learning, gender considerations,
learning beyond the classroom, and international models of
broadcasting curricula. At the same time that emphasis is placed on
the challenges posed by new technologies, careful attention is
given to the importance of educators' continuing to emphasize the
traditional academic skills of writing, interpersonal
communication, and analysis. In this way, editors Jerry Donnelly
and Joseph R. Blaney offer offers a unique roadmap to educators
charged with shaping broadcasting programs in light of new
technology.
