Intercultural Learning and the role of Visual Media

The Subject Centre would like to invite you to participate in our forthcoming interdiscipinary event on the various uses, in undergraduate teaching, of visual media - film television and other visual representations - to promote intercutural awareness as part of a programme in area, transnational or postnational studies. It will particularly explore the inter-disciplinary interfaces between film, media and cultural studies on the one hand and disciplines such as Geography, History and Politics on the other. How can visual media help to develop an understanding of cultural diversity, cultural difference and help advance intercultural awareness? The day will consist of a keynote presentation, case study papers on aspects of this theme focussing upon examples of classroom practice and there will also be time for a general discussion.
