ABSTRACT
The field of multimedia is composed of a variety of research areas. This diversity makes multimedia such a special and interesting research field. However, the different vocabularies, methods, and cultures of the involved communities also introduce barriers that make it difficult to teach the field as a unified subject. The panel invites experts to discuss if and how we can teach the diversity in multimedia as a single subject and how we as researchers and educators can help to foster this goal. The following text provides background information to the topic and introduces the organizer's hypotheses to be discussed at the panel.
