Introduction to Communication Science week 6: 6.1 Introduction Question & Answers

  • 0:11 - 0:15
    Welcome to our last week before the exam. I
    hope you are up to speed with everything.
  • 0:15 - 0:18
    If not, take the time to go over the lectures you
    missed
  • 0:18 - 0:22
    and read the text files we made available on our
    platform.
  • 0:22 - 0:23
  • 0:23 - 0:24
    This is week 6 of our course.
  • 0:24 - 0:28
    As you know we already covered everything we
    set out to do in the previous weeks,
  • 0:28 - 0:33
    discussing in a rapid pace some basic models
    and concepts, the history of our field,
  • 0:33 - 0:39
    the linear, construction/signification and cultural
    approaches to communication.
  • 0:39 - 0:46
    This week is an unscripted week that I want to
    use to go over some student questions.
  • 0:46 - 0:52
    I received approximately 200 questions to cover
    this or that item.
  • 0:52 - 0:57
    Some questions were posted on our forum,
    some came through Facebook or Twitter.
  • 0:57 - 1:02
    Even some per email, even though I temporarily
    hid my email address in the university database,
  • 1:02 - 1:05
    you were quite adept in finding me.
  • 1:05 - 1:09
    No worries, all suggestions were welcome, and I
    wish I could cover them all,
  • 1:09 - 1:13
    but as every week, we only have eight short
    lectures,
  • 1:13 - 1:18
    so I’ve made a selection based on how many
    times a topic was requested
  • 1:18 - 1:23
    and how well it fitted with our course goals.
  • 1:23 - 1:25
    One other important thing.
  • 1:25 - 1:31
    I will add questions to the exam about the topics
    that I cover this week.
  • 1:31 - 1:35
    So in that aspect, this week is no different than
    others.
  • 1:35 - 1:40
    We only had a few days to prepare so we have
    kept things basic this week.
  • 1:40 - 1:45
    You will be seeing me some more than usual
    and we have kept the visuals simple,
  • 1:45 - 1:50
    but hopefully as effective and entertaining as
    before. I hope you enjoy.
  • 1:50 - 1:54
    Oh, and let us know what you think of this
    week’s more lean approach.
  • 1:54 - 1:57
    We are learning just like you!
