Additional information

Unit content:In Knowledge in the Arts: Revealing Global Issues, we focus on the Arts disciplines, with a particular focus on media and demonstrate how arts research seeks to reveal global issues. In this module you will really hone your research and writing skills, as you are introduced to ‘humanities and arts’ style ideas. You will use their growing critical thinking skills to dive into the world of media and culture. You will be guided through how media is produced, develop media literacy and unpack and create your own ‘memes’ with meaning. Through this exploration of media and popular culture you will develop research skills and lift your essay writing to the next level ready for undergraduate studies.
