See CRICOS-registered alternativesHow is the past made into history? In this subject, you will use digital media to communicate the past. You will make history, researching a topic, event, place or artefact of your choice. Your challenge is to communicate this history via a media form (video, podcast, online essay or museum display) in an engaging way to the public. You will gain practical experience in media communication, independent research, critical thinking and ethics. As you engage with historical debates and media, you will challenge traditional ideas and practices and develop skills in understanding how the past becomes history and in communication. You will go from being the student studying other histories, to being the historian making your own history and communicating it to a public audience. You will gain experience in historical writing, producing a video or recording a podcast. This is a level 3 subject. This subject includes live sessions with the expectation of student attendance and participation.
