Digital Media Case Study Ideas

So far we've looked at some general examples of the impact of digital media: the problems it creates for media regulation with cases like Natasha McBride or Ryan Giggs' superinjunction; the ways in which it can meet the 'needs' humans have (Maslow) by making us feel secure and enabling creativity,  and finally the way social media is viewed (often by the media itself) from a dystopian or utopian perspective, either as a powerful force which will create a nightmare world or as a global village with no barriers to participation or freedom of speech.



You need to keep up to date with any developments in how digital media is impacting on society and changing the way we consume media products. This case study is wide ranging and it will also help you to answer Section A if you have as much knowledge as possible.

However you should also narrow your research down into a couple of areas which you should look at in more detail. This will make your case study independent and specific.

I've put together a list of 21 ideas and would suggest that you choose one or two. Remember that the headings you've put on your website are question topics for section B so you need to make sure you could answer a question on any of those topics with the two digital media case studies you've done.

Everyone in the class should choose something slightly different so try to decide by the end of this week so we can fight it out in a lesson.
