Rezensionen

"Teaching Communication and Media Studies is a thoughtful and useful guide to teaching that I wish I'd had when I began teaching in the 1980s. Its focus on the classroom space and agency of students should be particularly empowering to instructors, and I recommend readers dip back into it continually before, during and after the semester. The combination of insightful reflection and practical pedagogy will make it a comprehensive guide for those new to teaching communication and media studies as well as for veterans." -Steve Jones, University of Illinois at Chicago

"At a time when our communication environment is constantly changing, and changing everything about our world and our lives, those of us who are charged with educating students need to rethink many of the premises and practices that have guided communication studies for decades. Fernback's book provides the tools to do so." -Larry Gross, University of Southern California
