In our HİT549 New Communication Technologies in PR class, there is so much to read! There is a lot to watch too. Let’s just share the reading list here, and save the list of things to watch for another piece.
I think that the following studies are both directly related to the weekly course contents and will inspire your research proposal.
The first four studies of our reading list are the books for which you will be responsible for the semester exam grade. Other studies are the books and articles that I recommend to read – if you did not read during the undergraduate period – so that this course can be understood as much as possible.
How to Read a Book: The Classic Guide to Intelligent Reading; Mortimer J. Adler, Charles Van Doren; Touchstone (This book has also a Turkish edition.)
Deadline: 18.10.2022

It is almost impossible not to forget the book you are reading, especially if it is a more or less scientific book. So what should I do to not forget? It is most efficient to read the books by summarizing, and then remember the book by looking at that summary when we have a problem. Here comes the question of how to summarize the book. This book answers that very well.
