Media
Overview    
This course builds the competencies of participants to engage with media and to understand what type of stories appeal to the media. The participants will learn about the different types of media, how to think about audiences and how to position themselves in the story. The participants will also learn about what the journalists want, the 5W and a H model of storytelling, and what to expect in interviews with the media. All of this is explained with real world examples, and activities to explore how participant's research can be developed in context for a wider audience.
 
Objective   
At the end of the course, participants will be more aware and comfortable engaging with media. They will be able to pitch story ideas to media. Academics who do the course will also understand the application of the main CDU policies in relation to media; the Media Policy, Social Media Policy, and the Academic Freedom and Freedom of Speech Policy.
