My topic is Journalism, truth and ideology
Using course readings and additional outside research, groups explore these three questions: How have Media and Communication Studies scholars taken up your topic? What does Media and Communication Studies teach us about your topic? What is the relationship between your topic and Representation, Media and Democracy, and Media Organization?
Your goal is to both creatively and rigorously reflect on your assigned area of the curriculum, aiming to enhance your readers' grasp of the topic.
I want to you choose the third question.What is the relationship between your topic and Representation, Media and Democracy, and Media Organization?
CASE STUDIES
Each case study should address a recent or semi-recent event, story, or campaign related to your topic. Your group must produce one case study per member from a Media and Communication Studies approach. A case study can be any of the following:
a critical analysis of a particular campaign or initiative
a critical analysis of a media discourse, cultural representation, etc.
Case studies should be approximately 600-800 words each.
The case studies should incorporate visuals or photos that are as closely connected to the study as possible (and cite them, of course!). This is a mock website, after all, and websites more often than not have some sort of visual that accompanies the text. But that said, don't let the visuals do all of the work for you-be sure to explain why you chose the visual and what kind of work it does for your claims.
You are to draw on at least two assigned course readings as well as additional scholarly sources you've researched to analyze your objects of study through a Media and Communication Studies lens (taking into consideration REPRESENTATION, MEDIA AND DEMOCRACY, and MEDIA ORGANIZATION). In other words, apply the theoretical insights and concepts introduced in our course readings to your objects of study.
Avoid writing only a basic report of findings. The event/campaign (etc) should be analyzed in a specific way rather than act as a mirroring of your sources.
An example of a case study: say your topic is "Representation and Power" and your group has chosen to focus specifically on gender. One case might look at the use of photoshopping to transform women's bodies in advertising and entertainment media and how that impacts discourses around beauty standards. You would then offer instances of particularly known cases of photoshopping where models or actors have spoken out about the adjustments made to their figures.
