CMN 5195: representations of crime and justice in the media
CMN5195 - Representations of Crime and Justice in the Media - is an elective course for graduate students in the Department of Communication. This course was taught in 3-hour classes, taking place once per week.
The course covers the following topics:
The different ways that law and culture interact;
Legal frames and narratives that arise in everyday life;
The construction of emerging issues in law and legal culture
I use a variety of assessment tools in this class, including weekly reflections, a class presentations, and a final research paper. My course syllabi, teaching evaluations and student feedback from this course can be found below:
