I tried something new with my PR Research class last semester. In addition to having the students write a press release about their research projects (which I’ve always done), I recorded the audio of their presentations then put that with a group picture up in my Facebook. So now future PR Research students can see what previous student groups researched & well … more than just 20 people get to “experience” their class project.
Slowly but surely the press releases are being posted on the Grady College Web site … so far you can find out about the party school experiment or how the candidates used dialogic communication in the primaries on their blogs.
If you can’t wait to find out more about the other 3 projects, check out my Facebook:
- Atlanta-based PR pracititioners’ use of social media
- dialogic analysis of primary candidates’ blogs
- experiment testing credibility of crisis alert systems at a university
- impact of “party school” image on a university’s image
- uses and grats examination of media (video, music) downloading
Enjoy their research!
