Social learning and the facilitation of co-creative media practice in community media, arts and cultural organisations

(2016) Social learning and the facilitation of co-creative media practice in community media, arts and cultural organisations. PhD thesis, Queensland University of Technology.

Description

This thesis examines the significance of social learning in community media and arts contexts. It takes as its focus the use of storytelling by organisations in the community cultural development and community media sectors as a way of enacting social change from within communities. These organisations exist as hybrid learning environments, and they must maintain certain standards of quality in their processes and outcomes to be of ongoing value in their communities and to funders. Such community organisations create networked social learning systems, and the co-creative media practice explored in this thesis is learnt ‘in situ’ in communities of practice.

These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science® generally from 1980 onwards.
