Artistic interactions in Galicia 2022. III Meeting-residency of emerging creators
30 June 2022Summer Course 21st-23rd June 2022
The Liter21 research group of the University of Santiago de Compostela promotes the summer course Dare with audiovisuals: a didactic proposal, lasting 20 hours. This course is aimed at both professionals and students in the education sector, and its main objectives are to teach the basic techniques for creating an audiovisual and the development of a practice based on the design and development of a simple audiovisual project.
The challenge posed by the global pandemic has highlighted the importance of audiovisuals as an essential tool in education. In the tele-training environment resulting from the confinements, teachers must not only have a broad knowledge of the subject they teach, but also a clear understanding of technology and digital pedagogy formulas. This issue is related to the teachers’ own reflections on the strategy for managing ICT tools and the possibilities they offer in terms of educational innovation. It is therefore essential that, in order for e-learning to work, all members of the educational community, with particular emphasis on the teaching staff, are aware in advance of the possibilities offered by ICT in the field of teaching, thus increasing their digital literacy. The use of this type of audiovisual media, although already important before the needs derived from the COVID-19 pandemic, became a fundamental piece for the adequate socio-educational development at all levels. A reality of our era and the desire for new experimental learning proposals thanks to the competent and ethical use of the resources of the digital ecosystem.
The course is structured in two distinct parts: a theoretical approach to the basic elements of photography and video, and audiovisual narrative and editing; and a second practical part where participants will design their own audiovisual project. The programme will be as follows:
