Description:

Students learn three distinct methods of criticizing the media, 1) the use of scientific instruments to track media usage in the form of ratings, 2) the use of social science to form a critical understanding of the effects of media and 3) the use of artistic theory to understand the intended message of media. Students will explore these three disparate methods of understanding media effects, and will use their own media viewing and buying habits to better understand how the media effects culture.
