You probably already have a clear idea of what a 'discussion guide
for students' is: a series of not-very-interesting questions at the
end of a textbook chapter. Instead of triggering thought-provoking
class discussion, all too often these guides are time-consuming and
ineffective. This is not that kind of discussion guide. What Media
Classes Really Want To Discuss focuses on topics that introductory
textbooks generally ignore, although they are prominent in
students' minds. Using approachable prose, this book will give
students a more precise critical language to discuss 'common sense'
phenomena about media. The book acknowledges that students begin
introductory film and television courses thinking they already know
a great deal about the subject. What Media Classes Really Want To
Discuss provides students with a solid starting point for
discussing their assumptions critically and encourages the reader
to argue with the book, furthering the 'discussion' on media in
everyday life and in the classroom.
