Mobile Apps as an Integral Part of Media Studies

Original language description

Multimedia is a reality of today’s media world. It makes our life more exciting and media messages more attractive and memorable. There is no need for expensive technical equipment. With a smartphone and a few mobile applications, we can get our creative juices flowing. The aim of this paper is to identify and explore existing mobile applications suitable for implementation into Media Studies, including teaching methods and activities helping to meet learning goals. Media Studies is an intellectually challenging contemporary study programme. Its graduates influence our socio-cultural reality to a large extent. Therefore partial innovations of its syllabus in harmony with the latest trends can significantly contribute to a higher quality of media outputs at all levels. The author carried out detailed research into a number of mobile applications, with regards to their strengths and potential weaknesses. Not only awareness of their existence but, mainly, the possibility of their active use in seminars is the goal of this paper. Mobile applications examined in this study evenly cover areas such as news, story building, photo editing, audio/video editing, and, last but not least, blogging. The author is fully convinced that the specifics of smartphone mediated interactions versus face-to-face learning require further research that will shed light on these issues as the picture is still incomplete.
