COMM7850 Emerging Technology for Media and Communication (3 units)
This course approaches the objective from two folds: For Technology and By Technology. It is highly likely the students will report technology company, event and trend upon graduation. Or they may be PR specialists for a technology company. The duly acquired knowledge about the latest technology from this course can make them more accurate and more confident in the communication process. This is the "for technology" part of this course. Once the students become technology literate, they can create new product, new business model and new workflow, with the help of the new technology. This is the "by technology" part of this course. With the two folds exercises, we expect the students to be serious thinkers and thought leaders in the changing world, not only understanding technology and its influence on communication, but also constantly reflecting the power, its misuse and social implications.
