Content

Transition and Communication - Project:
Change communication contributes to the creation of value for an organization in change, and for its stakeholders. This includes well-founded means of communication to foster the organizational culture needed to embrace the change.

Students establish a communication strategy, make appropriate recommendations about the use of communication interventions, choose appropriate themes and formulate core messages. They plan and produce communication products and corporate events to implement the communication strategy in support of the organizational change. 

The block focuses on creativity and knowledge of what kind of communication works and how. The student justifies the use of communication means with professional arguments.

Visual Communication 8:
Students use the skills acquired in previous blocks (e.g. logo creation, animating, editing) in a new manner to construct a live talk show. The scheduled Visual Communication classes are used for rehearsals. In the end of block 2.4 every class will produce one live talk show with a self-chosen subject including guests. hosts, video items, visuals, and technical support. Students will use finished products from the previous block to enrich the talk show: video items, animations, infographics, scripts etc.
