50653 New Media and Social Change
8cp; prerequisite(s): 50300 Communicating the Social
Professional Strand - Social Inquiry - 300 level

Social change practitioners are increasingly involved in communication using new media technologies. Effective communication requires a critical understanding of the ways in which digital media can be used, the role of interactive environments in social mobilisation, and the methods required to realise collaborative projects. Situations may include social movements, community organisations, social campaigns at the local, national and international level, the development of exhibitions, demonstrations and presentations, and the building of communities. This subject integrates analyses of social change situations with the development of key skills needed to ensure effective interaction between researchers, change agents and communities. It develops skills in the use of Dreamweaver and related website programs.
