Learning outcomes |
The aim of the course is to introduce students to the most important issues in contemporary media ethics, based on their own experiences in their home countries. Students will learn relevant theory from media studies that they can use to understand ethically problematic phenomena and discuss these phenomena in an online class, which takes the form of a seminar discussion based on their essays. In the seminars we follow the principles of safe space, i.e. no opinions, experiences or feelings are excluded as long as they are articulated in a respectful way. We express our own positions and do not attack others, even if they have different attitudes or worldviews than ours. The seminar encourages diversity and a variety of perspectives on ethical issues, from conservative to liberal. The goal is to have a productive discussion and learn theory-saturated reasoning.
