Beschreibung: This course in American Studies intends to explore the following issues: Structural changes in televisual production and distribution in the US, changing TV viewing and consumption cultures, the economics and politics of making and watching TV, politics of televisual representation (social class, race, gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation), as well as theories and conceptual frames developed in cultural studies to analyze televisual cultures.
As part of your assigned work in this online seminar, all the course participants) would need to carefully prepare the reading(s) allotted for a session, develop points of discussion, either respond to the reading via annotations on Google Docs or respond to keywords and/or questions in forum areas set up for the purpose. If you have queries or doubts, they should also be added to the digital, collaborative tools. The due dates for your contributions will be indicated in individual forum areas/Google Docs. Pursuant to your interaction and work on the digital platforms, we will conduct weekly video conferences, which will be assisted by the expert groups.
We will review our progress, revisit and amend the course schedule, our strategies of online interaction as well as the seminar contents on a periodic basis. Readings will be made available in a “Readings” folder via links or as pdfs under the “Files” tab.
