A guide for teachers to teaching the media. Hart focuses on
television, the press, radio and pop music. Addressing familiar
problems which teachers encounter, the book provides examples of
practical classroom activities.
In TEACHING THE MEDIA: INTERNATIONAL PERSPECTIVES Andrew Hart
initiates a challenging dialogue about approaches to Media teaching
in the major English-speaking nations of the world, including the
United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Australia, and South
Africa. By animating actual lessons and the considered views of
classroom practitioners, TEACHING THE MEDIA encourages readers to
develop new perspectives on Media teaching, to examine approaches
that differ from their own, and to reflect critically on their own
practices with a view to understanding them more fully and
enhancing their effectiveness in the classroom.
Based on original research that began in England in the early
1990s, this is the first international comparative study to focus
on Media Education in English-speaking countries. It systematically
examines classroom strategies for Media teaching in the light of
the major theoretical paradigms which have emerged globally over
the last 50 years. It analyses the rich diversity of different
educational concerns, goals, and classroom practices through a
series of national studies of teachers and lessons. As a result,
not only do we see how Media is actually taught in range of
classroom contexts, but existing models of Media teaching can now
be more precisely critiqued and made more accessible for further
research and development.
In the East Falls neighbourhood of Philadelphia, just beyond the
northern boundary of the Thomas Jefferson University's East Falls
campus, stands the Hassrick House (1958-61), designed by celebrated
architect Richard Neutra, an icon of mid-century modern style.
Often described as an East Coast interpretation of California
Modernism, the Hassrick House is one of only three buildings
designed by Neutra within the city limits. Thomas Jefferson
University's relationship with the house began in the summer of
2015 when Andrew Hart, assistant professor of Architecture in the
College of Architecture & the Built Environment initiated a
series of summer courses to study the house. The first
multidisciplinary group of students engaged in architectural
survey, drawing, and photography. Subsequent summer courses refined
the architectural drawings, following the Historic American
Buildings Survey (HABS) and Historic American Landscape Survey
(HALS) standards. Yet another student cohort undertook documentary
research to uncover the history of the house and its occupants.
Then owners George Acosta and John Hauser were supportive
collaborators with students in this process. Neutra's architecture
and his relationship with the Hassricks - particularly Barbara who
emerged as the primary client voice while the house was being
designed - captured the hearts, minds, and imaginations of everyone
who engaged with the house. As one student recalled, "We have all
gotten swept away in the stories unfolding from our research." In
2018, Hauser and Acosta sold the property to the university with
the understanding that the house would continue to be used for
educational purposes. In George's words, "I had come to realize
that the students can be the future custodians of that home. They
can be the eyes. They can be the archives. In a way, it becomes all
of ours to share." This publication chronicles the students'
findings that shed light on Neutra's design process, his
collaboration with his clients, as well as the unsung role of
Thaddeus Longstreth as Neutra's proxy negotiator throughout the
design and construction stages. During its approximately 63-year
lifespan, the Hassrick House tells a saga of design, dwelling,
neglect, restoration, and reinvention today as a laboratory for
learning. In many respects, the history of the Hassrick House tells
an important story of the modernist movement in the US, both
regionally and nationally.
Focusing on the familiar media of television, the press, radio,
comics and pop music, this guide to the media also examines a range
of forms which cross boundaries between different media - news,
chat-shows, drama, fiction, public relations and advertising.
Andrew Hart stresses the relations between various forms of the
media, and addresses issues of value, control, quality and
ideology. These major areas are examined in the context of rapidly
changing technologies, patterns of ownership, production processes
and audience responses.
