If you’re looking for a magical trip to inspire and engage your students, Disneyland® Paris offers the ideal location for students of all kinds of subjects. Home to countless roller coasters and rides, all sat alongside the iconic Disney castle, this fantastic theme park also offers students the chance to enhance their learning experience through a series of eye-opening seminars and workshops.
As a preferred partner of Disneyland® Paris, Study Experiences can arrange subject specific trips to support your student’s education. For those studying the world of Media at GCSE, AS/A Level, SQA and BTEC students, Study Experiences Media Studies programme at Disneyland® Paris, will expand their knowledge through a series of seminars and workshops which cover key topics and themes.
Study Experiences covers key material from the most popular Media Studies examination specifications. Our aim is to bring classroom teaching alive through an exploration of the related working practices at Disneyland® Paris. Each topic is reflected in the Seminar, Workshop or Student Assignments. No other educational travel specialist has the knowledge or backstage access to provide this vital learning dimension..
Whilst on your school trip to Disneyland® Paris, your itinerary will include a curriculum-led seminar, an interactive workshop, subject-specific assignments, as well as entry to the resort's parks.
The Media Studies Experience immerses students in the practical applications of media studies care principles at this world-famous theme park resort in a number of different and engaging ways:
• Through attending a Seminar hosted by facilitators with experience of working with Disneyland® Paris and featuring back-stage video interviews and footage filmed exclusively for Study Experiences
• By taking part in our interactive Workshop which encourages the students to use their knowledge of media studies principles and practices
• Completing subject-specific Assignments during their time in the Parks and at the Resort
The Workshop gives students the opportunity to put some of what they have experienced in the Seminar and during their time in the Resort into practice. Divided into teams of 8 and guided by our experienced facilitators, their task is to ‘sell’ a product to the audience. A student from each team will select a box from those on the table, without looking inside. Each contains an item currently on sale at Disneyland® Paris. We are then looking for the ‘perfect pitch’. Reflecting on the 4Ps, they will need to include a description of the product, the price they will sell it for (in Euros), where it will be sold and how they are going to promote it. They then need to produce an advertisement – it can be in any format: poster, print or TV ad or a social media campaign. Teams will need to ensure their design is relevant to Disneyland Paris and respects the Disney brand. At the end of the Workshop, the teams will give a 3-minute presentation of their pitch and advertisement to the facilitators, teachers and the rest of the audience, including why they have selected their particular media format and how they consider it to be effective. They will need to be prepared to answer questions and receive feedback.
