Workload and Assessment
Knowledge of any East Asian language is not required, although you are most welcome to apply it, for example by selecting a news source in an original language.
Weekly notes: Each student will be assigned one newspaper or other news source. In preparation of each unit, students will be asked to read related articles in the assigned news source and to prepare a short informal presentation of their contents, identifying at least two major themes and knowing some of their background. The written notes for each of the sessions must be posted on Moodle 24 hours before class.
Final report: At the end of the semester, each student will be asked to submit a report summarizing the results of his/her media analysis during the semester. Details will be provided on Moodle.
Participation: Students’ participation in discussion is an integral part of this course. Regular participation is mandatory. The following rules apply: The grade for attendance is “1” in the case of up to three absences. If you are absent for up to 4 times, the grade will be “2”. If you are absent for up to 5 times, the grade will “3”, and so forth.
In-class activity: Your in-class activity will be noted. This concerns the presentation of the last week’s main events from your news source as well as your participation in the discussion of other presentations. Please be aware that you will typically not be explicitly asked to present. It is up to you to actively share your results and insights.

Expertise needs two components: a solid theoretical and methodological foundation to provide structure and guidance for a rigorous analysis, and rich knowledge of empirical information and of context, including the ability to critically access the quality of sources and to filter an overwhelming amount of information.
This VU is focusing on the latter. We will regularly read the online editions of some major East Asian English language newspapers. Major events related to East Asia from the fields of the economy, politics and society will be identified and discussed in an explorative and comparative way. At the end of this course, students will have a better understanding of ongoing events in East Asia, of their background, and of the different perspectives taken in various countries of the region.
