NATIONAL MEDIA EDUCATION CONFERENCE (SAAME)
ADELAIDE 26-28 SEPTEMBER 2008
Conference Theme, Digital Dialogues: Moving Media Education

HAWKE BUILDING
CITY WEST CAMPUS
UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH AUSTRALIA

CALL FOR PAPERS AND WORKSHOPS

The digital future is upon us and we ought to be talking about the digital
present. How are students, teachers and media education accommodating and
responding to the changes brought by the digital revolution ? Where is Media
Education now and where is it heading?

Children and young people now have more choices as consumers, readers, viewers,
creators and producers of media than their parents and even older siblings had,
and their communicative power is considerable. Media that used to be exclusive
and expensive is now everywhere and everyday. With so much availability and
opportunity for creativity, what are the practices that we find ourselves
engaged with as consumers, producers, educators, and citizens?

This conference invites papers and workshops that engage with the most current
issues, challenges and practices in media education. Papers will be accepted in
peer-reviewed and non-reviewed streams. Workshops may provide examples of
teaching and learning innovation, excellence, and engagement with media
practices and projects.

We welcome papers and workshops on a broad range of topics and here are a few
suggested themes:

Fostering Media Cultures; Me Media: More Than Just a Marketing Mantra?; Media
Making; Developing Digital Literacy; IP: Creating/Quoting; Teaching Ethics in a
Changing Media Culture; Indigenous Media Communities; Who are the Net Gen and
What Do They Do?; Media Regulation; New Media and Old Moral Panics; Relevant
Education for Media Workers; Social Networking Sites and Services; Encouraging
Childrens Creativity with Media; Open-source in the Classroom; Personal
