Research Report on Media Platformisation
In this report you will evaluate and make recommendations related to particular aspects of digital platforms foregrounded by the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission’s (ACCC) Digital Platforms Inquiry. You will be expected to pay close attention to the Final Report including its analysis and recommendations. Your report will be for a particular body with a particular interest in the ACCC’s Digital Platforms Inquiry. You will select an organisation and an orientation towards the Inquiry from the ACCC Task Sheet which I have chosen:
Journalism: Quality and choice
Social media and search and news aggregation platforms have transformed the distribution and production of journalism. In this report for Transparency International evaluate the ACCCs analysis of the difficulties facing journalism and the scope of its recommendations for securing quality and choice in journalism in the public interest.
In this Report on Platformisation you will apply the concepts, methods, orientations and course readings (particularly those of weeks 8-13) to your media sector to document, evaluate and make recommendations on processes of platformisation. You will supplement your close reading of the Final Report and submissions to the Inquiry with your own original research on the chosen topic area. You will present these in an integrated and well referenced Report.
You will be assessed on how well you can
apply and integrate the concepts and orientations towards media platformisation generally with those advanced by the ACCC in its landmark inquiry.
research a particular topic considered in detail by the ACCC using ACCC submissions and where appropriate its commissioned as well as journalistic, scholarly and industry research.
integrate into a Report format this combination of concepts and orientations, readings, and research into a well-written and referenced scholarly Report.

Hong Kong New Wave Cinema
Talk about Hong Kong New Wave Films through a historical framework. When thinking about which kind of framework or focus you want to take, consider some of these potential avenues:
How concepts of authorship or film style were affected by the political environment in which the film was made e.g. under fascism, post-colonialism
The role the government played in constricting or liberating film production, for example, through legislation or subsidies and other financial support.
Other cultural or social issues that the film/s may address directly, such as youth culture, feminism, immigration, violence, etc. These issues must be historically situated within a specific national context (in other words, think about why are your issue is important, or being debated in the time and place the film is being made?) This information will help you analyze your film, by providing historical context for your analysis.
You must use at least 4-5 sources you have found during research. All 5 sources may be secondary

Include the results of the leadership assessment . My personal leadership style is Amiable
Learning goals section:
