Synopsis

The twenty-first century is increasingly shaped by communications and media innovations. Societies and economies are now highly mediatised and digitised, like never before. There are phenomena changes in the ways global citizens communicate and interact. The era is one in which the mass media industries are highly disrupted. With mediatisation, digitalisation and audience participation in public sphere, old theories, concepts, curricula and pedagogy of communication and media studies are increasingly put to the test. Within this context, there is a paradigm shift from Mass Communication as a discipline to Communication and Media Studies, along with other highly specialised yet interrelated disciplines, taking into consideration the ongoing digital revolution harbingered by globalisation and contemporary Information Communication Technologies (ICTs). This has created the need for new instructional and reading materials relevant for use by stakeholders in tertiary educational system in Nigeria. Accordingly, 'Issues in Contemporary Journalism Education and Practice in Nigeria' is a timely and most adequate response to address the felt needs of teachers and learners in universities and colleges globally.
