We went over the questionnaire. Since the instructor had been ill, students were given an extra week. Fred volunteered to put his questionnaire on the overhead projector. The instructor critiqued it.
The instructor handed out a newspaper advertising assignment sheet. We read it on the overhead projector in class.
We went through the narrated slides for Chapter 2. Then students were put in pairs and the instructor gave them questions to answer.
The instructor handed out a digital file handout and asked students to read it for next week. They are to note the specifications for their own camera on the margins of the handout. There will be a PowerPoint next week on this topic and reading the handout will make it easier to understand. This information is important for students to know so they can produce a newspaper ad with the correct resolution required by the printing industry.
Next week:
a) Bring questionnaire for instructor to critique. Post at Blackboard.
b) Read Ch. 12 instead of the designated chapter on the reading schedule for the coming week.
c) Read the digital file handout
d) Visit with your client about a newspaper ad. Write one-half page and bring it class. Cover: what the client's marketing problem is, how the newspaper ad might address it, and what resources (art, co-op dollars, etc.) might be available for the ad. Tell what size of ad you think you might want for the client.

Advertising 3960 What Happened in Class
Update: Wed., 4 p.m. I have received numerous e-mail communications from the Kean IT/Blackboard staff and they are still having problems. Tues., 4:50 I've been advised that the Kean IT/Blackboard staff is working with the McGraw-Hill people and a tech service ticket is open.
---------------
Thursday:
We went to a media panel with journalists from The Star Ledger and other papers. The topic was "The Transformation of Media.
The instructor collected questionnaires. She will critique them and return them at the next class.
To Do for Next Week:
(instructor will fill in later)
Monday:
Today we continued to work on the newspaper advertising project. The instructor handed out a written assignment sheet for the newspaper ad and we read it in class. Deadline dates are Oct and Nov. 16th. Some ads can even run as late as Dec. 16, but it is unwise to put things off until the last minute so try for the earlier dates.
She explained the difference in quality for print illustrations vs. web illustrations and showed students various places to obtain such art:
www.clipart.com
Dover Publications, no longer located at Varick St., NYC (they moved out to their other location in Mineola, LI). Sign up for newsletter on this one and begin your clip art collection.
corbis.com. OK to use for mock-ups; must pay for art used for customers
www.microsoft.com and go to downloads, then clipart
Google "stock art photography" and sign up for the newsletters of a few other art sources. Some of them provide free art in each newsletter. Begin building your collection now and you will have a good selection when it comes time to build ads in the future for your customers.
Another source for art is to Google "copyright free art" or "public domain art." This art is free to use in ads, etc.
Next class:

To All Students
For my adult students, mostly in my weekend classes, an article on continuing one's education.
For any students looking for a p-t job, I noticed that the new Trader Joe's in Millburn has a sign out saying they are hiring. This is just off Vaux Hall Road by the CVS Pharmacy. It is in a shopping center previously occupied by Whole Foods. I think there is also going to be a Petco there. I believe I've read that Trader Joe's has won awards for their employee policies.

1402 Communication as Critical Citizenship
Thursday
Two groups presented today.
After the presentations, the instructor left the classroom while the class discussed whether they wanted to do tests or outlines. The instructor explained how each concept would work, i.e., tests would be viewed as proof of reading; outlines would be the major point from each paragraph. Students decided to do outlines.
Chapters 1-3 do not have to be outlined as the students will prove they have read the chapters through their "I Am Journal" paper, which is upcoming. Students should immediately begin outlining the other chapters. The instructor announced there will be an outline check at next Thursday's class.
To do for next class:
Work on outlines
(more will be posted here later)
Bring Annotated Works Cited (if you have not already handed it in) as we will correct it in class
Monday
Today was the first day for group presentations. Two groups presented, one on multitasking and the other on healthcare systems in other countries.
Thursday we will have two more groups and possibly a third presenting a second time.
Practicing is a requirement for this speech. One does not have to practice with the group. For anyone repeating their presentation, two mp3s of individual practice sessions are required. These must be posted at Blackboard and the instructor must be advised of the posting by email.
Please be sure to save the Schedule of Activities and Assignments to your hard drive. It is located at BlackBoard. I will also send it out as an attachment, as a few students say they are still having technical issues with BlackBoard.
To Do for Next Class:
Practice presentation
Make sure corrections provided by the instructor are performed
Reading: Ch. 9, 216-24, Organizing a Speech
Ch. 11, 295-302, Informative Speech

Next week we will be attending the play at 8 p.m. Students should convene, however, at our classroom at 7 p.m. Be sure to bring $10 and student ID for admission.
The instructor will bring an example of a paper written for the drama assignment.
We discussed topics and researching them. The instructor explained that it was OK to take on a source if what the student is seeing does not concur with the source.
We were supposed to learn how to do a personalized news page, where we get current research to come to us. We were also to discuss RSS feeds and information transmitted via e-mail. Unfortunately, our computer classroom that was reserved was locked. We will work on this at a future class.
We watched a DVD on propaganda techniques, specifically with Fox News Channel.

Stephen
Vivek
Chantal
Chantal
Ylani
Aajjah
Tyherrah
Melissa
Some of the above students have said they mailed the outline and AWC to me, however if your name is on this list, you need to re-send it.
All other outlines have been read and critiqued. If you have not received your critique, you should contact me about it and be sure to tell me how you originally sent it to me.
After this assignment, you must have all technical issues with Blackboard resolved. I won't be accepting assignments in any other format unless I confirm unusual technical obstacles with the Blackboard IT people.
I will only be looking at assignments until around 5 p.m. today, so if your outline and AWC has not been critiqued, you will have to present without my comments.

Thurs 102 What Happened in Class
We met in the computer lab and the instructor showed students how to get material on their research topics sent to them. She discussed three methods of having the material gathered by either Google or Yahoo: a) personalized news page; b) reader (RSS); c) topics sent to e-mail address. Students were given a worksheet and asked to bring it to following classes, as we will be working on research techniques for awhile.
After the computer session, we went back to the classroom and watched a DVD about propaganda sources in the news, specifically Fox News. The instructor announced that there will be a quiz on the DVD next week, but it is "open book," meaning students may use their notes.
Next week:
Write tentative working thesis and Point 1
Bring Annotated Works Cited (we will check in class)
Read Ch. 5 Langan and Lester.
Bring class notes for use w/quiz

Media 3100 Wed. Night Class Cancellation
Here is the email I sent the class:
I am coughing all the time and can hardly talk. I think I also have a fever.
I'm cancelling class because of this. I really hate to do it but I can't see how I could conduct much of a class.
I am putting a notice at the blog and I have also notified the department to put up a notice on the door.
Please check the blog later in the week for any notes about what work with which to continue.

3960 What Happened in Class
Thursday
The following was posted Wednesday evening:
Regarding the online tests, we have a small problem. I received this from our IT Dept:
Hello Professor Kipple
We have tried to import your file that you have provided but unfortunately it is not compatible with our system.
You will have to contact the publisher and advise them that the import was not successful because it was not compatible with our system.
Thank You
-- Distance Education Admin
-- Sakinah Franklin
I have contacted our publisher to see what the other options are. We can also discuss this in class. Update: The publisher has contacted me and there is a solution. I have to get in touch with IT.
Thursday:
Prof. Pat Winters-Lauro and Eileen Ruf visited our class today and we talked about projects with The Tower. The instructor will email students the media kit.
We decided whether we would be ad production people or negotiators.
Next class:
Continue with readings
Instructor will talk about trading area surveys and we will work with an exercise from the zip code map we recently filled out.
Monday
First we went over questionnaire writing issues. We talked about three different situations and practiced writing some questions.
Next we watched the narrated slides for Ch. 2. We discussed ethics and advertising.
Finally, we reviewed what to do for the next class, which is to read Ch. 4.
Last Thursday's class:
Discuss queston-writing and client situations.
Go over the chapters with the narrated slides.
Notes from last class, Sept. 17
Students had their worksheet filled out from the previous class's lecture. We went through the worksheet and discussed the questions.
Since the assignment was to write 10 questions and go on surveymonkey, the instructor handed out photocopies from the text to help students in writing the questions.
A trading area survey/zip code map was given to the class and each class member was asked to put their home zip code on it. This map will serve to illustrate the trading area survey at a future class.
Questions are due on the 30th but we will talk about them in the next class.

Media 3100 What Happened in Class
We worked with the online chapter (7). First we talked about the Holiday Inn Express example from the book. Then the instructor talked about different types of research with which she has worked: social policy surveys, media research, ethnographic research, etc. We viewed online examples at juicingtheorange.com.
We learned about random samples and nonprobability samples. During the random sample discussion, we did a "minute paper."
We worked in pairs to fill out a research questionnaire and we went over the answers in class.
The instructor informed the class that she had activated the shell for Blackboard.
She made copies of pertinent pages from the text so students could get started on their questionnaire. Students filled out a zip code map and next week the instructor will show how it is similar to how a trading area survey works.
Next week:
Ten research questions. Be prepared to provide the instructor with a link and a printed out copy of the research questions. Post the questions before class at Blackboard.
In addition to reading Chapter 7, also read Chapter 1.

Writing 102 Students: Theatre Reading
This will be an extra-credit project:
Opening Night on Saturday Afternoon
Monthly staged readings of original plays from our Playwrights Workshop
followed by a discussion with the author.
One Saturday a month at 3pm
Admission Free
September 19:
Going to the Chapel
Two one-act comedies
By Michael Z Murphy
The Theater Project, Union County College’s Professional Theater Company, will present a staged reading of "Going to the Chapel" by Michael Z Murphy, directed by Louis Scarpati, on Saturday, September 19 at 3 PM. The presentation will be followed by a discussion with the playwright, director, actors and audience in the Union County College Students Commons,1033 Springfield Avenue, Cranford, NJ. Admission is free.
This reading is part of the Opening Night in the Afternoon series of original plays by members of The Theater Project’s Playwrights Development Workshop, led by Artistic Director Mark Spina. These script-in-hand performances offer the excitement and immediacy of actually sitting in on rehearsals with talented members of The Theater Project. The series continues on October 17.
Going to the Chapel consists of two one-act comedies of manners. Act I is called "All in Good Time" and Act II is "Remote Control." The plays pose the question: To marry or not and if so, how? The characters have multiple considerations, and of course, life intervenes. One British cleric must decide and one dead Jewish mama must manipulate her children. Crossed wires, crossing over and cross spirits --- two comedies of manners.
Michael Z Murphy (please note there is NO PERIOD after the Z), communication professor, poet, certified massage therapist, life member of the International Listening Association and someone who has lived a televisionless life for almost 23 years brings a unique, albeit whacked, angle to relationships. This Hillside resident's past life includes teaching speech and/or English in every grade from 6 to 12, selling hardware as well as stints as an industrial painter, movie usher, stage actor, stage manager and director. His favorite activity is cracking student brains with critical thinking. He once played in an African drum ensemble with Celeste Holm---Oh, yes he did!

Writing 102-Saturday What Happened in Class
There was some confusion over the classroom, but eventually we all ended up in a multimedia room, #514. First students did a writing sample. The writing sample was on a question the student has that has never been satisfactorily answered.
Next we went over the syllabus. Students were shown where the online version was (see link at left) and hard copies were also distributed. We read through the syllabus. While reading through the syllabus, the instructor showed the books.
We read through the process of writing the research paper on the schedule of activities and assignments (pp. 8-9 of the syllabus). We also covered the drama and poetry parts of the class.
The instructor gave students the assignments, which are detailed at the end of this entry.
We constructed an email list and each student entered their email address on the list.
To do for next class:
Order books and print off order form if ordered online
Chapters 1 & 2 in both Lester and Langan (Langan's first three chapters are online)
MLA section of Hacker--look through, page by page, and know where to find categories
Bookmark the instructor's blog and set up contact information in your cellphone and computer
Choose a research paper topic from the writing sample or link at left. Students may choose another topic not in the writing sample or topics list but they must first get the approval of the instructor.

Writing 102_Friday, 6-9 p.m.
The instructor introduced the assignment for the next week, which was an Annotated Works Cited. The sources gathered for this assignment should work toward the research paper. This means students must make a topic selection.
The instructor explained the nature of academic research and the difference between public libraries and academic libraries. She also talked about the
unique nature of libraries and librarians in NJ and why style documentation exists.
The class took a break and after the break we went into pairs to do "paired summaries" of the class thus far.
The instructor explained the process students will go through to construct the Annotated Works Cited:
1. Choose a topic
2. Keywords: general research on google.
3. Academic databases—begin accumulating sources.
4. Save sources to a folder
5. Read the sources and as you read them, make notes
6. Alphabetize the sources by the author’s last name
a. If no last name, use the name of the article
7. Identify what type of citation it is: is it book?
8. Write the citation the correct way by looking them up in your style guide(Hacker)
The instructor showed students where to go for the radio and TV sources (NPR and BBC for radio, public television (PBS) and BBC).
She also showed them the databases at the library and how to do searches on them. The magazine and newspaper sources, for example, must be done from Lexis Nexis.
We then worked on topic selection. Students told what topic they were thinking about for their paper.
Next week:
Find 10 sources for your research paper and write them up in an Annotated Works Cited using MLA style documentation. You must have the following sources:
book from academic library, academic journals (5),
newspaper article (1),
magazine article (1),
radio source (1),
TV source (1)
Use Hacker to write your 10 sources
-----------
Read Ch. 2 in Lester and in Langan. New students, catch up by reading Ch. 1 in each book.
-----
Annotation:
An annotated bibliography describes the "relevance, accuracy, and quality" (Engel) of your sources.
Questions to answer in an Annotation
1. What was the specific format of the source? (Encyclopedia, interview, video, etc.)
2. Where and how did you find this source? (Public library, school media center online resources, home, Internet search, etc.)
3. What is the purpose of this source? (Educate, persuade, inform, entertain, etc.)
4. What is the content of the source? What topics are covered? In what amount of detail?
5. To whom is this information directed? Is there specialized and difficult language?
6. What are the credentials of the source? Is the author/publisher reliable? How do you know?
7. What information did you find that was important to your project/research?
8. What did you find difficult about this source?
Annotations could be descriptive or evaluative, or a combination of both. A descriptive annotation summarizes the scope and content of a work whereas an evaluative annotation provides critical comment.

Advertising 3960 Thursday What Happened in Class
We welcomed a few new students into the class.
The instructor went over the blog address and links page.
She advised students of the activity for the class session, which will be based on Ch. 7, research.
We learned how to convert features into benefits. The instructor told the class this was part of learning to think like an advertising person. Features alone do not mean anything to a customer; it is only when they are converted to benefits that it has meaning for the customer.
She showed several features, such as "sharp knife" and "10-calorie, all-natural cookie." We found a benefit for each of the examples
Then we focused on a technical product. We analyzed product packaging and critiqued it.
Next class:
Review Ch. 7 and know definitions.
Read Ch. 1, at least half of it.
Notes from class when we converted features into benefits.
Was:
Integrated digital tuning (8VSB ATSC and QAM) eliminates the need for a separate digital converter set-up box (in most cases)
Better:
Allows you to receive a digital signal without a digital converter box
eliminates the need for digital converter box
eliminates messy wire and clutter and reveals a crisp picture payoff
clutter-free
The tuner inside gives you a clutter-free space!
Save money now--no need a purchase a digital
converter box
benefit of a digital signal:
more channels

Speech/Critical 1402 What Happened in Class
We welcomed two new students today Shariat Ullah )(Sharif) and Tassneen Hewevy.
The instructor followed up on the book and Blackboard enrollment by asking students if they had ordered/signed up. While many students ordered the book, only three had enrolled in Blackboard. It is important to get on BB as we will be posting assignments there.
Even if students order the book online, they should have it by Sept. 20-22.
We read most of the syllabus in class and will finish up at the next session. At our next session we will also get the group assignment and possibly the "I Am Journal" assignment.
Next class:
Enroll in Blackboard. Five points awarded for students who are on.
Save the syllabus to a folder for the class (suggested name "Speech Critical)."
Read Chapter 1 in Seiler/Beall.
Go to the group topics document (link at left) and decide on a topic that is of interest. If there is a topic you want to propose, we have one open group. Bring your topic to see if others want to join you in the group. The groups will be about five students each in number. Students will be presenting toward the third and fourth weeks of September.

Advertising Media 3100 Wed. 6-8:45 p.m.
The instructor went over the syllabus, class projects, and reading assignments. Students will receive the reading assignments in hard copy but should save the syllabus to their hard drives in a class folder.
We also discussed the books for the class, which are listed in the syllabus and at the link to the page with the book covers, found at the links at left.
Next we reviewed the reading assignment, which is Chapter 7 in Arens. The chapter is about market research.
In the last part of the class, we looked at a box for a Toshiba LCD screen. The instructor showed where she thought features could be more prominent.
She then explained the difference between features and benefits.
We had a worksheet, and we worked on re-writing the features into benefits. Students put their work on the screen and we edited each piece of copy.
To do for next week:
Read Ch. 7. Focus particularly on the definitions and types of research.
The instructor will talk about her various jobs in market research. Students will then be put in pairs and will answer questions on a worksheet. The questions are based on the Chapter 7 research reading.
Think of a client. All clients must be approved by the instructor.

Writing 102_Friday, 6-9 p.m.
First we read the syllabus using the overhead projector. The syllabus is being distributed as an online document, however, the schedule of activities and assignments and class notebook guidelines were distributed as hard copies.
Each student read a portion of the syllabus and the instructor explained or added to certain sections. One policy that we are considering is how many lates equal an absence. Students are to consider what they think is fair and provide input next week.
The instructor showed students the books and asked that if they order online, to keep their receipt proving when they ordered. If the book should be sent late, this proof will excuse the student from academic penalties that might result from not having the book. All assignments must be made up, however. Books should be purchased as soon as possible.
Next students did the writing sample and handed their sample into the instructor. This sample serves as a benchmark. It also might be an inspiration for the research paper.
Student topics will be posted here over the weekend, so if students are in search of a topic, they are encouraged to look at the topics list.
To do for next week:
Think about a topic. If writing sample is the choice, the instructor will provide input which will be received next week.
Purchase books and read Ch 1 in Lester and Ch. 1 in Langan.
Look at the topics list for other possible topics.

What Happened in Class 1402 Mon-Thurs
Thursday Sept. 3
Speech 1402
We had a chaotic beginning to our first class due to the overhead projector having no electrical signal. This prevented us from reading the syllabus in class. We went to Plan B, and that was to do paired interviews and introductions.
The instructor taught the class a technique for remembering a person’s name, and that is to associate it with something about the person’s face. Using this technique, many members of the class were able to recall the names of our first 10-12 students.
Students did introductions and we covered about half the class.
The instructor told students about the text and the blog.
Next class: Order books or purchase them at the bookstore. Online orders should be printed out to prove that they were placed within a few days of the first class. If a book should arrive late, this proof will enable the student to make up the work at a later date without any decrease in grade.
Students will also need an an MLA/APA style guide. One used for a previous class will be acceptable.
