College Media: Learning in Action is a unique resource for journalism educators and students, media advisors, student personnel administrators, and students at any level - undergraduate or graduate - interested in learning theory and practice. Sixteen original, scholarly and diverse chapters encompass a wide range of methodologies that detail how students involved in college media organizations have formative experiences in a variety of different forms of publication and electronic media broadcasting. In part, the volume is assembled to help students and educators alike justify their practice and involvement at a time of change when new forms of social media, pressure to quantify learning outcomes, and budget issues in higher education are reshaping the undergraduate media landscape. This volume offers insight into how many journalism and media professionals began their careers and in doing so affirms the value of learning through direct experience and involvement.

«All in all, this unique resource provides pragmatic and timely research from experienced professionals who can attest to the benefits that student media involvement has on college students passionate about media production. Undoubtedly, College Media highlights the breadth and depth of heterodox education acquired by student media workers.»

«Mit College Media erfahren Hochschulmedien endlich die Beachtung, die sie in Anbetracht ihrer Produktivität längst verdient haben. Denn Hochschulmedien als Forschungsfeld sind in der Kommunikations- und Medienwissenschaft stark unterrepräsentiert. [...] Diese Herausgeberschrift kann als Grundlagenwerk für aktive Hochschulmedienmacher_innen gesehen werden.»
