COMM 334 - Film, Video and Media Studies Theory and Research

(3 credits)
Prerequisite: COMM 224; and COMM 225 or COMM 229 or COMM 240; all must be completed with a minimum grade of “C”
This course explores media theory and research both analytically and empirically through readings, screenings, class discussion and a range of graded assignments, including original research. In addition to an overview of various theoretical paradigms and research strategies, students also read works of scholars that put these ideas into practice. This strategy allows students to engage the literature not just as critical readers, but also as critical writers.
