(b) To what extent does "image culture" conflict with the practices of modern schools and what is the relationship of children/adolescents/young people with audiovisual products?
(c) What are the most effective ways (models) of integrating audiovisual arts into education?
(d) What are teachers' attitudes/views on audiovisual education (audiovisual education and audiovisual arts education) and what creative teaching practices emerge from teaching applications in the school environment with the synergy of audiovisual expression in the educational process (objectives, content, teaching material, teaching methodology)?
(e) What educational practices have been developed in the three dimensions of audiovisual literacy (viewing, critical approach and production of audiovisual products) at educational levels?
(f) What is the contribution of audiovisual arts to the cultivation/expression of critical and divergent attitude?
