Additional Comments |
Mark Simpson is easily one of my top 3 favorite teachers in this entire campus. He is very educated, creative and most of all inspiring. His teaching is sporadic and often never ends up finishing his original though but through this method he handles content that is relevant to the current studies. He will spend entire class periods answering questions and sharing inspirational material that makes it very easy to learn and stay up to date in the field of advertising. I would hands down recommend this teacher for any class he teaches especially digital world. He works very hard to keep students on track by offering any assistance he can and giving students breaks when they need it. He makes sure to address needs of the students as they arise, not when they are convenient for him, as many teacher fail to do. Mark Simpson is an under appreciated gem of this university and has genuinely helped me find what I should be pursuing in life. I would like to personally thank Mark Simpson for all his hard work and determination to the cause of teaching students for the students sake and not to keep a job.
The class itself has no actual notes that are required but it is suggested that you take them to keep up with the material. Tests are normally group or open book and are over content that is pretty much straight from the notes. Books are again a suggestion. The whole class is group work. You find a company locally to create a start to finish advertising campaign. You get to work directly with real clients on real problems that agencies face when promoting a product or service. I highly recommend this class to any student in the school of journalism because the amount of real world experience you gain is incomparable to other classes. The final is a 20min presentation over your entire semesters work. Sounds intimidating but it is very fun... stressful at times, but very rewarding and a great portfolio piece for receiving a job.
