Unit overview

Hello and welcome to the Media in the Online Age blog. On this blog you will find links to interesting articles and websites connected to the case studies and ideas that you will encounter on the course. You will also find a selection of videos - some of which you will analyse in class.

You will see several link lists on the right hand side of the page. The 'important people to follow' are people who we will study during the course of the unit, and the 'important links' are really useful in developing your knowledge and understanding of media in the online age.

The final link list on the right ('Links to Theories and Concepts') will come into use as the unit progresses and will eventually be an excellent revision resource for you as we get nearer to the exams.

We hope you really enjoy the unit.
