Communication and Media Ethics 2019 First Term
Since much of the conscious activity of most of this generation revolves around mobile phones, digital devices, and the social media, either as Facebook users, Twitter users and followers, Instagrammers, youtubers, and as audience, and consumers, gamers, dreamers, fighters, and creators; and since there is no course in the entire University devoted solely to social media behavior, this semester, this section on Communication and Media Ethics will pilot a syllabus that confronts, in large part, social media behavior including:
How to be safe in social media
The Dark Web
Hate speech (such as those that foster prejudices based on race, creed, religion, etc. including red-tagging)
Trends in cybercrimes for 2019
Bullying and other threatening behavior
Data Privacy Breaches
Fake News
Social media standards, community standards and breaches
All of these will be discussed in the first five weeks.
The next four weeks will be devoted to the broadcast media (KBP Code) and to specialized reporting including conflict- reporting and disaster-reporting.
Two weeks will be devoted to standards in public information and advertising.
Three weeks will be spent for ethical dilemmas in the film industry.
At least two weeks will be dedicated to the SPJ Code of Ethics and Philippine journalists code of ethics.
