Division Pre-conference Teaching Boot Camp 

Moderating/Presiding 

Marcel Jennings, Virginia Commonwealth 

and Hal Vincent, Elon 

This daylong workshop will help faculty members understand 

the pedagogical, ethical and legal frameworks necessary 

for successful operation of internships programs. 

This session should prove especially valuable to junior 

faculty who may need guidance in helping their students 

to compete and engage in worthwhile field experience. 

Topics to be addressed include: first steps in beginning an 

internship program, introduction to experiential learning 

theory, identifying needs of students and employer/sponsors, 

understanding legal issues affecting paid & unpaid 

student interns, learning about the importance of career 

competencies and gaining knowledge about special needs 

and circumstances for international (non US-resident) students. 

Also, we will discuss how to establish academic 

standards, evaluation methods and quality control for supervising 

interns, learn how to reach out to, and collaborate 

with, intern employer/sponsors, develop syllabi and create 

fulfilling reflection-analysis assignments. The format will 

be a combination of lecture and small group discussion. 

Participants will be invited to submit topics and questions 

in advance for discussion groups. Highly interactive 

problem-solving exercises will allow participants to gain the 

wisdom of the group in seeking solutions. A bibliography of 

sample documents and resource readings will be included. 

Preregistration required. 

Tuesday 

Global diversity perspectives are increasingly shaping 

the nature of the advertising business. Are educators 

preparing students for the challenges and opportunities 

students will encounter in a global marketplace where 

brands on even the smallest level can appeal to audiences 

around the world? Are U.S. university curricula 

leading the charge to equip the future talent of advertising 

with the knowledge and skills needed to compete in a 

global world replete with possibilities to reach audiences 

through emerging media platforms? How can a global 

perspective in the classroom help prepare students for 

the jobs of the future? This full day of learning will feature 

sessions from those who engage in global perspectives 

from academia and industry, and will help prepare 

educators to build classes, create assignments, discover 

resources, and focus on skills in-demand of students 

entering the advertising business in a “small,” diverse 

world. Pre-registration is required.

Panelists 

James A. Rada, Ithaca 

Desiree Hill, Central Oklahoma 

Krishnan Vasudevan, Maryland, College Park 

Documentary Film continues to be part of the research 

agenda of many broadcast journalism professors, meaning 

films are being included in their tenure files. In addition, 

journalism professors are teaching documentary as 

part of the curriculum in their programs. But does everyone 

on that APT (appointment for tenure and promotion) 

committee really understand the value of the documentary 

research being produced? Furthermore, does everyone 

understand that it doesn’t matter if it is a 10-minute film 

or 90-minute feature length film, as long as the film is getting 

accepted into juried film festivals or screens nationally 

on TV. This panel will help gain better understanding 

as to why documentary film is increasingly accepted as 

viable research in journalism programs. Furthermore, 

students are particularly interested in pursuing long-form 

journalism projects, i.e. documentary film, because it 

allows them to develop their narrative storytelling skills 

in a visual platform.

Got Big Data?: Computational Methods in 

Research, the Classroom, and Ethical Storytelling 


Dustin Supa, Boston and Jay Hmielowski, Florida 

Panelist 

Deen Freelon, North Carolina at Chapel Hill 

In this pre-conference event, participants will get an 

overview of various aspects of computational research 

methods. Specifically, this session will provide a brief 

overview of the most frequently-used computational 

methods in communication and media research, as well 

as an explanation of the expertise required to apply these 

methods effectively. Most of the session will be devoted 

to a hands-on introduction to a few basic computational 

methods using the programming language R. This will be 

oriented toward beginners having no prior experience 

with computational methods. Finally, there will be an 

overview of the ethics surrounding the collection and use 

of large-scale datasets. Pre-registration required.

Mitzi Lewis, Midwestern State

WELCOMES 

Haoran “Chris” Chu, Ph.D. Assistant Professor, Department of Public Relations 

Haoran “Chris” Chu (Ph.D., University at Buffalo, State University 

of New York) investigates the role of emotion and psychological distance 

in strategic communication as related to various risk topics. Funded by 

the National Science Foundation, his current research examines people’s 

cognitive and affective responses to messages promoting climate change 

mitigation, as well as individuals’ reactions to climate-change-induced disasters. 

He is also interested in studying the influence of technology in 

building community resilience against various natural disasters and seeks 

to expand his research to investigate other local and global issues critical 

to the well-being of communities and individuals living within them. 

Shan Xu Assistant Professor, Department of Public Relations 

Shan Xu expects to receive her Ph.D. from Ohio State University in 

August 2019. She is interested in how people make media choices and 

how that influences their physical health and psychological well-being, 

using real-time and longitudinal data in conjunction with mathematical 

and computational models to study the dynamics of media choice and media 

effects. One main application of this research is to better understand 

how media multitasking during eating influences people’s choices of junk 

food and healthy food. Another application is to investigate how multitasking 

in daily life impacts adolescents’ psychological well-being over 

time. She has been published in “Health Communication”, “Computers in 

Human Behavior” and others, and has won research awards and grants.

This half-day AEJMC pre-conference will bring together 

leading scholars around the world to consider the 

increasing integration of political messaging within entertainment 

content and its implications for civic life. Papers 

presented in this pre-conference represent a collection of 

theoretical and empirical inquiries that examine the content 

and diffusion of formats that integrate political messaging 

with entertainment media, the audience consumption 

habits and how this is shaping the influence of this 

genre on audiences’ political perception and behavior.

The Changing Demands of Internships.

Betty Kennan, Radford 

This pre-conference workshop will discuss the effect the 

rapidly changing technology and mobilization has on 

student internships. In an open forum, participants will 

look at the social media influences and discuss how 

education is impacted. Issues will also include how 

a student’s personal challenges impact the internship 

dynamics. Our students no longer sit in a classroom, read 

PowerPoints, and take exams, instead they are required 

to participate through chats, learn new computer skills 

like Spark, and be flexible when they engage. This 

educational expansion pushes the boundaries of the 

internships, where, when and how they are conducted. 

We also need to review the varying dynamics of the 

student and their learning abilities. There has been an 

increase in the number of students that are on the autism 

spectrum, have learning challenges, drug dependencies, 

and mental challenges. This also changes the dynamics 

and expectations of internships and future careers for our 

students, and us. This panel will dive into these issues 

amongst others that faculty are handling with regards to 

internships and careers. We encourage others that work 

with interns to attend and contribute to this conversation. 

Pre-registration is required.

Take your Doctoral Studies to a Hig her Gro und

studies how people have relationships with 

technologies, a growing and important area of 

research. After spending many years researching 

player-avatar relations in video games, she focuses 

her current work on human-robot communication. 

That work is supported by a 3.5-year grant from the 

U.S. Air Force Office of Scientific Research that focuses 

on whether and how people may see social robots as 

being similar to themselves and what that means for 

how humans and robots might work together. She 

has published more than 30 articles and delivered 

more than 70 research presentations nationally and 

abroad. She joins Texas Tech University after holding 

assistant professor positions at the University of 

Toronto and West Virginia University.

Participants receive a one-of-a-kind FunRun 

medal that features the conference logo designed by a

Gracie Lawson-Borders, Howard 

Panelist 

Thor Wasbotten, Santa Clara, 

2018-19 ASJMC President 

Join your colleagues for a conversation regarding pathways 

to academic leadership and reflections on the 

impact of Lorraine Branham in both industry and the 

academy. Dr. Branham led the S. L. Newhouse School 

of Public Communication for more than a decade, taking 

what Donald Newhouse, son of the school’s founder, 

told the New York Times, “a great school and with a 

monumental effort remolded it to keep it relevant to a 

world that is constantly in flux.” Her most significant 

accomplishments, however, may not have been what 

she did within the walls of Newhouse, but what she 

accomplished as a mentor to academic leaders and faculty 

throughout the country. In her role as a mentor for 

the Institute for Diverse Leadership, she understood her 

responsibility to share her knowledge and her gift to help 

prepare others. 

In this session, you will hear from some of the leaders 

who were inspired by Lorraine to move into academic 

leadership. You will also be able to speak with current 

academic leaders about your own path. Refreshments 

will be available.

Data-driven storytellers 

M.A. in Interactive Media 

We celebrated a decade of excellence this year! 

Our M.A. in Interactive Media program graduated 

its 10th class this spring, preparing 29 students 

to think strategically across platforms, create 

interactive media content, and manage information 

in a digital age. Through their 10-month 

exploration of new avenues in interactive and 

digital media delivery, iMedia students discover 

new technical skills and career paths in UI/UX 

design, VR, gaming and digital storytelling. 

A Partnership with Business 

PRWeek’s Outstanding Education Program 

partnered with Elon’s Martha and Spencer 

Love School of Business to create a Corporate 

Communications concentration in the M.S. in 

Management degree. Business faculty teach 

the M.B.A.-level business and analytics courses, 

with Communications faculty teaching strategy, 

writing and campaign courses. 

INTERACTIVE MEDIA graduate students spend 

January working on a team project for the public 

good, which includes an international trip to 

collect audio and video content. Interactive content 

and websites are produced to help nonprofit 

organizations build community recognition, 

increase volunteer efforts and boost fundraising. 

This year, iMedia students traveled to Colombia, 

Cuba, Dominica and Ecuador. 

Sponsor of the Toronto App 

Elon is pleased to be the sponsor of AEJMC’s 2019 conference app, offering information on sessions and speakers.

WELCOMES 

Nick Bowman, Ph.D. 


Department of Journalism & Creative Media 

Industries 

Nick Bowman (Ph.D., Michigan State University) 

has been studying the uses and effects of interactive 

media for nearly 15 years. His research examines 

how technologies influence how we feel, what we 

think, how we behave, and how we interact with 

each other: video games and VR are popular forms 

of entertainment but the underlying psychology 

of both is not well understood. His research has 

been published in more than 80 peer-reviewed 

journals, and he has contributed to more than 200 

presentations both in the U.S. and abroad. He was 

awarded a J. William Fulbright grant to research 

persuasive uses of VR in Taiwan, and has active 

research partnerships in Taiwan and Germany. 

He comes from West Virginia University where 

he founded and has conducted research in the 

Interaction Lab.
