Abstract
Media education initiatives have been on the increase in the Asia-Pacific region in the past decade. Although they face similar curriculum and pedagogy challenges to their Western counterparts, Asian educators also have other local and culturally specific factors to consider. In this study, the endeavors of a retired media professional to identify and develop a sustainable model of media education are chronicled and discussed. The insights of the novice teacher offer critical and meaningful reflections for practicing teachers in the design and implementation of media education. An experiential model of media education that encourages the full use of “experience” in the learning process is discussed. This model also raises fundamental questions about teachers' beliefs, school culture, and their implications for media educators operating in a school context.
