This course will explore different theories and models of mediation as they inform the broader topic of conflict resolution.

Vlogging has exploded in popularity over the past few years. As a means of self expression, sharing information, instruction, marketing, or expressing opinions, vlogging at its best and most effective is not just a casually produced, brief account of one’s day. Creating an engaging, substantive vlog post is not as easy as it looks. Noted vloggers (including many YouTubers) spend hours carefully constructing their vlog posts, and much of the same methodology, production values, and story crafting traditionally used in a short documentary, or a topical television “news magazine” segment are used in popular vlogs today. We’ll watch and discuss vlog posts by some of the best in the business, including a wide variety of subject matter, from college vlogs to travel vlogs, news & opinion vlogs, etc. Each student will choose from the myriad topics and styles that exist in the “vlogosphere”. There will be a requirement of a minimum of one vlog post per week, in light of the need for consistency in production in order to build an audience. We’ll practice key video production and post production methods, which in addition to using cameras and editing software, will also include writing, practice using a teleprompter, and working at developing an on camera presence and persona. Over the course of the semester, students will develop and enhance their ability to produce sophisticated content which includes strong narrative communication.  The fall ’19 semester’s vlogging class will
focus on various topics that the Communication Department has addressed in itscurriculum, such as the opioid crisis, immigration, mass media criticism, and
others.  Writing Intensive

Additional Course Details: 

This course considers the significance of surveillance in its broadest sense -- as a form of social control. New communication technologies have facilitated the expansion and intensification of surveillance in contemporary life, particularly in the spheres of government, commerce, online interaction, and security. This course tracks the historical development of surveillance, from its origins in embodied social experience and recordkeeping through the rise of the modern database, biometrics, and social media. This history provides a backdrop against which major theoretical perspectives on surveillance are introduced, drawing special attention to the impact of surveillance on the social construction of identity, the classification of populations, and the naturalization of social categories. 

Prereq: CMN 455, 456, and 457 with a C or better and a C- or better in two 500-level courses (each with a different 400-level prereq). Writing intensive.

Additional Course Details: 

The rise of nativist populism in established democracies across the globe has inspired considerable shock, contradicting dominant narratives of linear social progress. This course examines how the current moment of populist upheaval relates to contemporary mainstream political and media discourse. This course explores how the media at large contribute to the “climate of opinion” (Krämer 2014) that is a precondition for populism: the commonsense and natural idea of who constitutes "the people" as well as a definition of what qualifies as legitimate forms of national life. In the first part of the course, we explore the definitions of populism and the media's role in its emergence. What are the roots of the populism that has been cultivated in the course of relatively normal politics and public discourse in recent history? What makes populism different from other strains of democratic politics? How have populists historically used new media to reach and influence the public? What distinguishes different forms of populism and how do they overlap with authoritarian and democratic politics? The second part of the course will examine the role of media in different populist movements across the globe, from the Philippines and India to Europe and the United States. Students will conduct original research on these different national contexts. What do these movements have in common? What do the tell us about the future of democracy in an increasingly interconnected world?
