In this class, I feel using the Wall Street Journal as our primary "instructional tool" in the course, I have learned a lot more than I would have learned using a textbook, that honestly, I probably wouldn't have opened during this course. The WSJ is more up to date (obviously) and textbooks just kind of bore me. I learned more about what's happening in the current businesses of newspapers and novels and the new innovations in technology that is affecting these businesses. Textbooks dealing with Mass Communications become out of date as soon as they get published.
And honestly, for what I want to major in, PR, I need to stay current with what's happening in the markets and businesses that maybe in the future I'll work with. So, in turn I will be renewing my subscription to Wall Street Journal.
This was an awesome class, by the way.
