  • CNM 201: History of Mass Communication

    3.00 Credits
    Southern Maine Community College

    From cave art to the internet; mass media have shaped human history and perception. But avenues of communication to an audience also follow their own timeline, driven in large part by technological revolutions. Students will trace that evolution up to the present moment, as one way communication to groups is being replaced by inter activity. Oral and written assignments will foster an understanding of the link between culture and media, and the important turning points in media history. Students will also write personal narratives about the way media has shaped their memories, or the memories of an earlier generation, and they will track down examples of vintage media to share with classmates. Prerequisite: CNM program acceptance
