- Course Catalog Description:
- In an era when almost everybody's a content creator and just about every company is connected with media, what makes mass communication different from other forms of message exchange? We'll examine journalism, advertising, public relations, video gaming, music recording, music and more. We'll think about issues like free speech, "fake news," censorship, social media, demographics, psychographics and graphic content. Hear from mass media professionals who provide real-world, real-time material for discussion and debate. This class covers ground that is shifting by the day and uses current cases to help you apply what you learn and sharpen your own media literacy skills.

- Class Description:
- Description: How are new communication technologies (smart phones, tablets, etc.) changing the way media professionals do their work and audiences receive messages? What do we know about the effects of television and video games on children? Are social media going to kill traditional print media (newspapers, magazines, books)? Do advertising and public relations practitioners perform a useful information function in a democracy? Will we still go to a movie theater to see a film five years from now? These questions and many more are explored in this course designed to introduce students to the theory and practice of mass communication in the United States. The orientation is on the industries of mass communication and how they are changing and evolving in light of digital technologies. Students interested in majoring in journalism and mass communication must take this course before entering the major. Students interested in how and why mass communication messages function will leave the course with a deeper understanding of the media environment within which we all operate.View full course profile here: JOUR 1001
