Editor's Notes

  1. Driven by technological advances, the media environment continues to experience rapid change Students have to learn current concepts, but also must be prepared to grasp new ideas and apply them in their workplaces Today's students are preparing for jobs that don't exist yet, and graduates are expected to be immediately productive in defining and shaping these new roles. Social media editors Community managers Programmer/developer roles in communication companies
  2. Understand pedagogical and cultural differences in teaching tech in mass comm and computer science. Establish mass comm as the discipline that provides the technology education of the future. Develop a platform that shares tech skills with professionals and helps to train faculty. Female role models and mentorship.
  3. Courses cover the realm of conceptual/theoretical to basic skills to advanced tech Each course balances emphasis on communication, design and development in projects Engagement with social media; blogs, Twitter, Facebook… Attention to current events in tech Focus on judgment, problem-solving and troubleshooting Developing a digital media center to centralize thinking in this area across our sequences Faculty development Professional community ties
  4. Moving into mobile, adding responsive design to classes Pushing the envelope with tech skills – programming, scraping, web frameworks
  5. Goal is to develop a passion in students so that when they are interviewing in 6 months, a year, 2 years, they know what’s happening currently, not what we discussed in class.
