The School of Media Arts will debut a 15-unit teacher certificate program for media education on July 12. The courses will be taught solely online. Set to become the School of Theatre, Film and Television starting July 1, media arts felt it was important to instruct teachers on how to teach with media. The school found that people were utilizing television, film and audio in their classrooms, but not really learning how or why any particular medium does or does not work. Beverly Seckinger, a UA media arts professor and interim director of the school, notes the new program is a way for media to be taught online, a way to reach beyond just those who can attend regular classes.
