The Australian-published quarterly media studies journal Screen Education is aimed at media teachers, and at secondary school teachers interested in harnessing the power of visual media to stimulate learning. It is essential reading for those with an interest in media literacy, offering a unique and engaging perspective on screen education, and is an invaluable resource for upper secondary students and university students studying film.
Screen Education No. 87 covers a range of films including Inside Out, The Edge of Seventeen, Passengers, Concussion, The Fast and the Furious series, Rabbit-Proof Fence, The Act of Killing, Dead Poets Society and What We Do in the Shadows, as well as controversial Netflix series 13 Reasons Why. The issue also takes an in-depth look at the career of Alfred Hitchcock, considers the benefits of using sitcoms and videogames in the English classroom, and demonstrates how popular films can be used to teach students about mythology, as well as covering all the best new digital tools that will assist teachers everywhere.
