Radio Practice and Politics


Summer 2016 quarter (Session I)

Taught by

communication, social studies

Radio Practice and Politics is geared toward students who want to develop their oral communication and media skills as well as gain insight into the political economy of radio. No prior experience is needed. Our studies will focus on fundamental elements of radio production: writing, performing, recording, interviewing, editing, and broadcasting. Assignments will include live and edited broadcasts. Readings, films, and listening assignments will deepen students' understanding of the political economy of radio and contemporary radio aesthetics.  Students will gain knowledge and skills needed to become potential hosts at KAOS Community Radio Station.  Some lessons will be taught by KAOS General Manager, Ruth Brownstein. This program fulfills communication requirements for selected MIT endorsements.
