Dear Media Culture students,
Here is your second topic for your Blog Assignment.
Attached here is a comic strip entitled "Rumors, lies and innuendo spread far, wide, and fast on the Internet." taken from "Introduction to Mass Communication: Media Literacy and Culture" by Stanley Baran, pg 324. (You can post this up in your blog)
Do you often take what is on the Internet as truth without thinking much about it? If yes, why? If no, why? Discuss this in your own words.
IMPORTANT: Do not take other people's words as your own. Please state your source when quoting someone or article.
DEADLINE: 12 midnight, Sunday, 8th March 2009
Each student must post at least 2 critical reflection on topic given (4%), 1 personal reflection on the media culture class (1%), over a period of 5 days to 7 days
*critical reflection means:
1) Think, ponder, reflect, debate and discuss the issue given
2) Make clear connections to the topic of discussion
3) Include supporting details and examples (you can use videos, audios, photos) to elaborate your points
4) Use correct spelling and grammar
If you are still not sure what to do, please email me at helena.song@mmu.edu.my.
