Catches:

Lecture

  • The in-class activity was pretty fun; honestly, I could allocate some of the activity time to lengthen the time on each slide; however, the activities are much appreciated because they are generally helpful and fun.
  • The slide did not move as fast this class

Guest Speaker – Huy Tran

  • He is well-informed and generally a smart person, though it was a little stale
  • He answered questions in a way where that demonstrated his experiences

Release:

Lecture

  • Class slides are easier to understand as the content is not so fast, though the slides are book-like, which kind of sucks becuase it requires us to decipher what’s important on each slide rather than only having what is important on a slide.

Guest Speaker

  • To be honest, the guest speakers are sort of getting dull; it seems that they all generally relate to the course but not specifically to what we are talking about; it lacks depth in respect to our lectures, in that the information is correlated though it lacks direct connections to specific lecture information. This is not particularly about one specific guest; some are better than others, but it is a general point.

Readings

  • “Content Planning for Social Media in 8 Steps” → It was fine reading, though it was very long and not particularly interesting. The format was easy to follow and provided a nice read.
  • “Mining for (Source) Content Gold” → This was a shorter read, which is generally an easy sell for me. It was a bit more informal than other readings, which I appreciated as I could relax a little bit as I read it.
  • “How to Build a Social Media Calendar” → Same feedback as the first one, more or less.
