If you need help with advising I can be much more helpful to you if you will first check the web pages and then email your question to me. Often I have to consult other faculty or get permission from someone and it is more efficient of your time to carry out this exchange by email than your having to return to see if everything has been answered. See “Advising Information” at the bottom of http://www.austincc.edu/ina/
    I can also arrange to meet at other times if you will call or email me.

INSTRUCTIONAL METHODOLOGY

 

This course is a lecture class.  You will be required to log into Blackboard to check grades and upload your assignments.  Information on using Blackboard will be provided the first day of class.  Successful completion of this course requires maturity and self-discipline.  Each student is responsible for maintaining steady progress during the semester.  I am here to assist you, please talk to me whenever you have questions, comments, or concerns about this course.  Go to http://acconline.austincc.edu for student entry into Blackboard.  You will need your student ID and password to log into Blackboard.  Blackboard access is available the first day of the semester.

 

COURSE RATIONALE

 

The purpose of this course is to offer cutting-edge thinking on Advertising including “new” media options such as Advertising on the World Wide Web and explain how advertising works in the real world.  Advertising and brand promotion is a large part of the rise in consumer and Advertising culture.  This course provides a solid understanding of fundamentals and provides a structure for understanding why much of the conventional wisdom in Advertising is no longer working well.  Principles of Advertising is not just about textbook learning: it challenges students to use their critical/creative skills in all aspects of Business and Advertising, not just those covered in this course.

 

COMMON COURSE LEARNING OBJECTIVES/OUTCOMES

 

  1. Understand what advertising is and its role in advertising and brand promotion and the economic effects of advertising.
  2. Understand the structure of the advertising industry.
  3. Be able to identify, analyze, and understand the advertising environment.
  4. Be able to prepare the advertising message and fully integrate the creative process.
  5. Understand the importance of placing the message in conventional and “new” media.
  6. Be able to identify, understand, and apply integrated brand promotion.

IMPORTANT DATES FOR FALL 2010

 

Exam One, September 20, 2010

Exam Two, October 18, 2010

Exam Three, November 15, 2010

Final, Take before  December 8, 2010

 

Assignment 1 due October 6, 2010
Assignment 2 due November 6, 2010

Superbowl Ad Review due  December 1, 2010

 

Notice that it is possible to earn quite a lot of credit in this course for work other than tests.   For instance, a student who is struggling in this class might only make a 90 on a test.  This is a fairly low grade, since it is 90/150 = 60%, which is equivalent to a D on that test.   Suppose this student made that grade on each of the four tests, so his total points for the tests was  4x90 = 360.    If he also did all the non-test work in the course perfectly, he could earn 400 points, and so his point total is 760, which is a grade of C. 
November 18, 2010 is the last day to drop.

TESTING

 

Review exams are on the publishers’ web site and I strongly encourage you to take the review exams online before you take the tests.  You must complete 4 exams this semester.  The exams will be taken in the classroom.  Each exam will be 50 multiple choice questions.  Additional information about the exams will be available in class. If you miss an exam, with my permission you will be allowed to take a make-up exam in the testing center.  Testing center information is at http://www.austincc.edu/testctr/

  • Missed Exams – If you miss an exam you have 48 hours to contact me and arrange to take the exam as soon as possible.  You will then have 5 days to take a make-up exam.  You will be given a different exam from the classroom exam.  The exam will be placed in the testing center at the campus where you are taking the class.  The final must be taken at the scheduled time.  There is no make-up for the final.
  • Office Hours – Office hours are posted on my web site at http://www.austincc.edu/ina
  • Student Withdrawal Policy – It is the responsibility of the student to withdraw from this class.  If you are unable to complete this course due to illness, moving, etc., please officially drop or you will receive an F.  Remember that November 18, 2010 is the last day to officially drop.
  • Assignments will not be accepted late.
  • Cheating will not be tolerated.
  • You may not bring food or drink into class.  This is school policy.
  • Please turn off or mute the volume on your cell phone so as not to disrupt the class.  If your cell phone rings during the class I may deduct up to 5 points off your next exam.  You may not “text” messages during class.  Laptops may only be used to take class notes.  No surfing the Web surfing class.
  • Do not arrive late to class, it is disruptive.
  • Arriving late to take an exam may cause you to forfeit that exam grade.  I expect you to start the exam at the beginning of the class period.
  • Disruptive behavior (talking, rudeness) will not be tolerated.  Children are never allowed to attend class with you.  This is a college policy.
  • You are here to learn, so be prepared to participate in class discussion.  We are all unique individuals and in this class everyone’s opinion will be respected no matter if we agree or disagree.
  • Your attendance, attitude, and class participation will determine marginal grades, based on the attendance policy stated.
  • Counseling services are available to help you with a variety of needs, if you need more information please don’t hesitate to ask.
  • Office hours are posted outside my door and on my web page at http://www.austincc.edu/ina.  Ask if you need help.  I am here to help you!
  • All students must take the final, no exceptions.

 

DEPARTMENTAL COURSE/CLASS POLICIES

 

Departmental policies for Incompletes, Attendance, and Withdrawal are as follows:

 

Incomplete Policy:  An incomplete (I) will be granted to a student in rare circumstances.  Generally to receive a grade of I, a student must have completed all examinations and assignments to date, be passing, and have personal circumstances that prevent course completion that occur after the deadline to withdraw with a grade of W.

 

Attendance Policy:  All students are expected to attend classes.  Non-attendance will have an impact on the student’s grade.

 

Austin Community College Policies for Academic Freedom, Scholastic Dishonesty, Student Discipline, and Students with Disabilities are as follows:

 

Academic Freedom Statement:  Each student is strongly encouraged to participate in class.  In any classroom situation that includes discussion and critical thinking, there are bound to be many differing viewpoints.  These differences enhance the learning experience and create an atmosphere where students and instructors alike will be encouraged to think and learn.  On sensitive and volatile topics, students may sometimes disagree not only with each other but also with the instructor.  It is expected that faculty and students will respect the views of others when expressed in classroom discussions.

 

Scholastic Dishonesty Statement:  Acts prohibited by the College for which discipline may be administered include scholastic dishonesty, including but not limited to cheating on an exam or quiz, plagiarizing, and unauthorized collaboration with another in preparing outside work.  Academic work submitted by students shall be the result of their thought, research or self-expression.  “Academic work is defined as, but not limited to tests, quizzes, whether taken electronically or on paper, projects, either individual or group; classroom presentations, and homework”  (Student Handbook, 2002-2003, p. 32).  Penalties for scholastic dishonesty will depend upon the nature of the violation and may range from lowering a grade on one assignment to an F in the course and/or expulsion from this institution.

 

Student Discipline Statement:  Classroom behavior should support and enhance learning.  Behavior that disrupts the learning process will be dealt with appropriately, which may include having the student leave class for the rest of that day.  In serious cases, disruptive behavior may lead to a student being withdrawn from the class.  ACC’s policy on student discipline can be found in the Student Handbook.

 

Students With Disabilities Statement:  Each ACC campus offers support services for students with documented physical or psychological disabilities.  Students with disabilities must request reasonable accommodations through the Office for Students with Disabilities on the campus where they expect to take the majority of their classes.  Students are encouraged to do this three weeks before the start of the semester.  Information is in the Student Handbook.

 

 

RULE OF THREE:  Per state law, effective Spring 2006 any student taking a class for the third time or more may be charges an additional $60 per credit hour unless exempted.  We call it the Rule of Three.

 

The Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board has mandated that all publicly funded higher-education institutions will not receive funding for courses a student takes for the third time or more.  Without the state funding for those affected classes, ACC will charge additional tuition to pay for the cost of the class.  The new “Rule of Three” tuition costs will not apply to developmental courses, Continuing Education courses, special-studies courses in which the content changes each time, or other selected courses.  For additional information go to http://austincc.edu/admiss/ruleofthree/

 

 

SERIOUS CONSEQUENCES FOR RECEIVING A “W” IN A COURSE:  The Texas Legislature has now, for the second session in a row, instituted some substantial consequences for students who withdraw from courses. Students have traditionally thought of a W as a non-penalty grade, thus it is very important that students understand the direction that the state is going about withdrawals so that they can avoid substantial negative consequences later.

 

The consequences instituted by the state in 2005 are that, for most courses, if a student enrolls for the course for the third time, the student will have to pay substantially more tuition for the course.

 

In 2007, the state declared that, for incoming freshmen in Fall 2007 and later, there will be a limit of six W’s overall in the student’s college career.
