Media Reloaded by Hugh Mason-Jones & Augusta Zeeng

Media Reloaded is an invaluable resource for the development of visual literacy skills in the English classroom. It has been developed by experienced media educators with a passion for understanding contemporary media and technology both in and out of the classroom.

Media Reloaded offers teachers a flexible whole-course resource that supports syllabus outcomes in both Media and English for Years 9 and 10 across Australia that:

studies the contemporary media landscape, from both practical and theoretical perspectives, including media language, technologies, institutions, the role of audiences and the social values embedded in representations.
examines how media and multimodal texts are produced and received, and provides students a comprehensive and practical understanding of the industry.
discusses how media and multimodal texts are produced and received by exploring genre; narrative; visual literacy; film and video; photography; representation; advertising and propaganda; text media; animation and gaming; and audio forms.
helps students consider the historical, social, and cultural factors
