Abstract
In the lead-up to a restructure of the ‘creative’ majors offered at the author’s institution, she was given the task of researching ‘best practice’ for the teaching of Screen Arts. Such an undertaking called for an exploration of what other universities were doing, and what the industry was demanding in terms of graduate skills and competencies. On a personal level, she was keen to map out how institutions in Australia were responding to the challenges of a digital age. Such an undertaking could, hopefully, reveal how the changes since the late 1990s have impacted on the teaching of Screen Arts. Following this research, this chapter presents an overview of current practice for the teaching of Screen Arts in Australian universities, with reference to local and global screen industry trends.
