"Whatever Next? Media Learning 1972 and 2008"

Keynote speech, bfi Media Studies Conference London, 5 July 2006

Cary Bazalgette - Education Policy Adviser

Cary Bazalgette's keynote presentation to the bfi Media Studies Conference on 5 July 2006, covered a number of topics including the high profile that media literacy now has in the curriculum, the forthcoming Creative and Media Diploma, the concept of public value, and the role of public institutions and the media industries in relation to media literacy. The presentation starts by recalling a seminal moment in 1972 when the bfi helped launch "the first substantial public intervention in media study for young people". At a time when the bfi is planning to lead other agencies in a new strategy for moving image education in the UK, this paper is intended to be relevant reading for all involved.
