    Media Studies Strand - Media production

    Students learn to make media products that can entertain, inform, and challenge. They explore, develop, and communicate ideas through the development of their skills in the use of media technology. In the process, they use language, symbols, and structures to create meaning. In reflecting on their own and others’ products, students develop their production skills.


    For the purpose of Media Studies you need the GIMP software downloaded on to their computer. https://www.gimp.org/
