Course objectives
The aim of the seminar is to provide the reflection of the twelve-week professional internship, exchange of experience among students working in various institutions, chaired discussion about the experience and knowledge, as well as evaluating the knowledge in relation to the the corresponding professional literature, theory and content of the courses offered by the Department. In the seminar, students will thus learn to compare their own and other students' practical knowledge with what they have learned in different courses and draw appropriate conclusions based o such comparison. It is an advantage that the course gathers the students of two specialisations, i.e. Journalism (internship in media) and Digital Media (internship in advertising and PR agencies, post-production, or editing of web portals). Both groups will thus be able to compare and confront their experience, thus gaining an insight into the issues close to their specialisation, which they would otherwise have difficulty obtaining. With the help of reflecting one's own experience and confronting the theory and practice, students' knowledge will rise to another qualitative level, which, together with the Professional internship course, will substantially extend and support their possibility to find a vacancy after graduation and will significantly increase their competitiveness in comparison with those students who have not completed a similar cycle, linking the theory and practice.
Syllabus
  • Introductory seminar – course organisation and content, setting the main rules and principles to be fulfilled and respected in the course of the internship (a method handbook is used); sharing the experience of those students who completed the internship in previous periods (presentation), and screening a didactic and presentation video recorded in media during previous internships. Mid-course seminar – reflection of students' experience gained so far and confronting it with the theory which was the content of the previously completed courses, as well as the practical courses organised by the Department (presentation of students' essays, presentation of the results of their work, and chaired discussion with the exchange of experience among students working in various institutions). Final seminar– final reflection of students' experience gained in the course of the whole internship and confronting it with the theory which was the content of the previously completed courses, as well as the practical courses organised by the Department (final essays presentation, presentation of final results of their work, and chaired discussion with the exchange of experience among students working in various institutions).
