Scope of the Project

The scope of our project:


 * The project intends to investigate the educational values of programs like 'Kahootz' and aims to assess its limitations and sustainability. By studying 'Kahootz', we are trying to see how content may shape the viewing and audience expectations of a new generation of media users.
 * In an analysis of a second case study: Animalia. We intend to investigate how digital storytelling is transforming the illustrated children's book by Australian illustrator, Graeme Base into a digitally animated Children's TV series
 * the project will cover issues like funding of digital media projects in Australia (especially in Victoria) and audience trends and behaviours.

We intend to investigate how digital media content is reshaping to the viewing behaviours and expectations of the next generation of media-content users by focusing on two case studies,conducting extensive online research into digital and transmedia, experiencing digitalmedia examples and talking to a range of media industry professionals and academics
