Other People's Capstones
Over break, I visited the University of Missouri School of Journalism to check out its convergence journalism program. "Convergence journalism" is the buzz word for all forms of media streaming together. For more than you want to know about this important trend in communication, go to USC Annenberg Online Journalism Review . More importantly, check out what students in the Missouri convergence journalism program are doing for their capstones. You might get some ideas! Whenever "strategic communication" is mentioned, that's means PR and advertising. Start with Projects/Teams: Spring 2009 Want more? Then click at the bottom for the previous semester. Good chance I can put you in touch with any Missouri students whose projects intrigue you. Your own electronic pen pals!

The word of Convergence is a new word added to my media dictionary because it’s the interesting thing to know that a single word is used to” describe everything from corporate strategies to technological developments to job descriptions.” Even in politics.
ReplyDeleteMoreover, I was stunned after reading about the different capstone projects done by students because they used different ideas as redesigning a website, “moving into the audiobook business. By researching, produce, market and distribute those audiobooks”.
I think it’s helpful because it expanded the ideas that we might use or apply in our capstone.
i cheked out the capstone project
ReplyDeletein the website , their ideas are different
from our ideas or how we think
theie projects are about redesigning or redoing things and markets
our projects are somehow links our ideas with our society and our generations .. its actullay like awarrenes and exploring and educating
hmmmm .. I agree with Khawla at some points
ReplyDeletewell but LOVE this one businessweek .. it really a way of using youth in solving on of the biggest problems not only in US but in all over the world
I think thses capstones are planned professionally. These people have gone in to details, which is great and that what's make a successful capstone. And it's all about convergence. I liked "Public Relations and Marketing for RJI" the most because I'm also in terested in participating in event planning and marketing.
ReplyDeleteVery interesting projects they really are professional projects. I think they thought about their projects for a long time and they organized will.
ReplyDeleteI believe in ZU we are more likely to do capstones that relates with our society.
I really like these capstone's projects. I think they are very professional projects. They thought for there projects in details so I guess they will be very successful projects.
ReplyDeleteAm sure that we, as Zayed University students, will do the same or even better.
Good luck for all.. XD
