Mass media has a tremendous impact on all of our lives. Taking this class demonstrates that you have an interest in exploring how media can manipulate your feelings and responses with regard to attitudes and consumption habits. All types of media are discussed and examined throughout the semester. Assignments include 'Journal Articles' where each student does outside research on a specific media or event. The course covers all media with an emphasis on print, radio, TV, and the Internet.
This web site is a terrific way to access the information you need about this class, as well as serving as an educational resource. You will find download links for the Syllabus, Assignments, other Web sites, and a Grade Report showing your ongoing progress. Whether you're currently enrolled or planning to enroll, or just curious about what we have to offer, you're sure to find a wealth of helpful information.
