What I posted on Communicators Anonymous…
Last night was my final night teaching entry-level university marketing communications. I am a firm believer in lessons learned from each venture, so this is my list:
- Do not speak in new media-geek
- Power Point presentations for an evening class is not effective
- Address why the class content is important to them (other than credit hours)
- Identify the difference between hard and soft copy format
I am extremely proud of the students. Thank you to all of my peers who welcomed the students on your blogs and took time to incorporate them into the conversation.
