About this space

What this space is. Communicationspace is a multidimensional online network for the media and communication studies academic communities. Sponsored by SAGE, the site is open to anyone studying or researching in media studies, mass communication, journalism, new media, games studies, interpersonal communication and the many other communication studies fields. It is created for students and researchers to network and share research, resources and debates.

What you can do here. Start by creating your own page with your profile, research interests, podcasts, videos and widgets. The easiest place to start getting the most out of communicationspace is the reading + discussion page, where you can read, discuss and debate articles, lists, links and the other fun stuff we regularly post. Why not launch an interest group for your field, research group, society, division or department – and be sure to invite people to join. Start a blog; upload poster presentations, podcasts and videos; post and search job listings; create open and closed discussions; check out teaching resources and share course outlines and syllabi; add your own Top Ten list; and view, post, and RSVP to upcoming meetings

What this space is not. Please note that this is a professional site, and we take all reports of abuse, spam, impersonation, inappropriate behavior, and other disruption very seriously. We reserve the right to remove any content that we consider offensive, inflammatory, or irrelevant to the purposes of our site, as well as ban those who post such content. Please don't post material that is overly personal in nature, use the site to "publish" your research (informal discussion is welcome, but this is not a journal), or post material that does not fall within the editorial scope of the site. Such material will be removed. Whenever possible, we will alert you before we remove anything.

Communicationspace is here for you so the best way to have the community you want is to get involved: so please read, comment, post, listen, share resources and follow debates. If you have any suggestions on how to make this site work better for you and your community, please let us know.
