Course intention within the general study plan context: |
|||||
According to the objectives of the Humanistic and Citizen Formation Program of the Monterrey Tech's Academic Programs, this course tries to contribute to the students' appreciation and enjoyment of the great diversity of cultural products available from an aesthetic and social perspective. At the same time, this course provides the students the necessary tools to critically approach the contents of the cultural production offered through mass communication media. Thus, it is expected that students will appreciate the audiovisual culture and will manage to deepen their understanding of the world, and of their social and personal surroundings. The course is designed for students enrolled in academic programs including courses on Humanistic Perspective. It does not require that students take previous courses in mass media and culture. As a consequence of this course, it is expected that the students participate in discussions; write essays and reports that allow them to present their understanding of the different readings of a mass media message, from the social and aesthetic perspectives; make presentations in which they show their understanding and appreciation of the different artistic and cultural expressions available through mass communication media. |

Course objective: |
|||||
The students will understand, appreciate and analyze the contents of a variety of audiovisual messages (from film, radio, television, comics, recorded music, photography and interactive media) through historical, social and aesthetic-semiotic dimensions. They will also study different theoretical approaches to the critical and semiotic analysis of the audiovisual narratives and they will apply the appropriate model to study each medium and every audiovisual text. It is intended that the students, through the analysis of several audiovisual narratives, understand and appreciate different cultural manifestations, analyze the different readings of an audiovisual message and, at the same time, think about the impact of mass media messages on society. |
