Course Objectives: | This course aims to develop critical conceptual frames for understanding how new media technologies are uesd to acturalize communication processes in various areas of everyday life. |
Course Content: | This course offers a comprehensive approach to the rapidly evolving new media technology and environment. Conceptualizing new media as new forms of participatory culture, sources of information and entertainment, platforms for social engagement, a means for artistic expression, and tools of government, this course explores the influence of new media technology in transforming culture and society. Topics may include, social media, digital game, digital media art, digital and citizen journalism, digital transformation of television and cinema, and social control in the digital age, and others. |
The students who have succeeded in this course;
1) Identify the defining characteristics of new media. 2) Demonstrate understanding of the new media landscape. 3) Demonstrate understanding of the economic, social, political, and cultural implications of new media technology. 4) Identify and discover the range of areas in which new media technology can be applied to enhance communication. 5) Formulate innovative ideas to develop, incorporate, and implement new media technology that aim at enriching culture and society. |
