Call for the course?

Samuel Mann posts about a need for a new type of course that helps software developers aquire jounalistic skills. I think the Social Media course could help here. It uses software, from a social perspective, with journalistic analysis.

Begin course development

I'm slowly setting up a course in social media. Its a course for
* Communications specialists
* Journalists
* Designers
* Artists
* Media developers
* Marketing agents
* Teachers and trainers
* Social scientists
* Community workers

This is a 3 stage course with each stage equivalent to 3 levels in a degree. It is designed to work in with people's existing study schedules, or along side an existing degree programme.

My plan is to gradually develop the schedule on the wiki and use this blog to make notes.
