Evaluation
The evaluation consists of the following elements:
- Course project (50%): The main objective is to create and implement a social media campaign along with its communication plan. The entire campaign process must be thoroughly documented in a report. Additionally, students are required to give a presentation about their social media campaign in front of their classmates. This activity is to be conducted in groups of 3-4 students. Not recoverable.
- Flipped Classrooms (30%): Each week, a different group presents at the beginning of the class a summary of a topic designated by the lecturer. The goal is to delve into a subject beneficial for the students' social media campaign. It is crucial that the group demonstrates debating skills and interacts appropriately with their classmates. This activity is to be conducted in groups of 3-4 students. Recoverable (making a presentation of a different topic).
- Participation (20%): The contribution of ideas and reflections in class discussions are taken into account. The participation also implies asking questions when the groups are presenting the topics. Not recoverable.
Methodology
The classes combine a theoretical explanation (45 minutes) and a practical part (75 minutes). The latter aims to ensure the achievement of theoretical knowledge and is based on discussions and course project mentoring.
The CLIL methodology is used and participation, reflection, critical thinking and the presentation of ideas in an assertive and effective way are encouraged. Being a class taught in English and with all materials in this language, communication in this language is encouraged through class discussions and presentations.
In terms of resources, the subject requires doing activities on the computer. Additionally, readings that students must prepare before class are utilized, along with videos featuring case studies on the creation of social media campaigns, as well as the management of communication and online public relations within various companies.
With regard to the elaboration of the project, the social media campaign must progress in parallel to the topics covered in class. It is monitored throughout the course, either at the end of class or through tutorials with the different groups of students.
