Lecture 1

The very first Communication and Organization lecture began with a warm welcome by Dr. Collette continued with an intensive introduction to the course by explaining the course work and assignments that includes a proposal, a follow up report and a final portfolio that demonstrates the learning process and journey throughout the whole course. This lecture has already given me a heads up on this course that it will not be easy and I cannot slack, as it is a 9unit course. Thus, proper planning and research along with constant reading and recording of notes or journal is needed from time to time. I have also decided to present my portfolio through blogging, as each blog post will be demonstrating what I have learnt in each chapter in the textbook, lecture and also tutorial. This way, it helps me in understanding the course better and I will be able to keep track with my learning process throughout the course.

Introduction

The whole purpose of this blog is to record my weekly learning process on Communication and Organization, based on the text book, lecture, tutorial and extra readings related to this course. With this blog, it will help me in having a better understanding towards the theories learnt.

This course, Communication and Organization is the final course of the Communication and Media Management program, or CMM. This is a nine credit unit course and it is the final course for the program. The work done in this course requires the experience of taking all other courses over the past two and a half semesters and really reflects upon all the resources gained from the courses in the past two and a half semesters.
