LV-Beschreibung

Intendierte Lernergebnisse

This course introduces the student to the unique challenges associated with developing and implementing successful advertising campaigns globally.  The course mixes both theoretical and practical perspectives in addressing the dynamics of advertising as it functions within the international marketing mix.  The course is designed to help students understand key issues that advertisers must keep in mind in creating effective programs for foreign markets: cultural norms and values, economic policies, legal constraints, political environments, social  contexts, and more.  Both the process and product of international advertising are addressed – from research and strategy development to creative execution and media planning.

Lectures will be made available to you via PowerPoints (with extended lecture notes) that will be posted on Moodle on the afternoon prior to each day’s lectures (for example, PowerPoints for the first day of class – Monday January 9th – will be available on Moodle on Sunday afternoon January 8th). Readings will be available on Moodle approximately eight weeks prior to the beginning of the seminar. In order to do well in this class, you are strongly encouraged to complete ALL readings. Your responsibilities include completing an online examination, and submitting a Culture & Advertising assignment, as well as submitting responses to reflexive questions associated with the PowerPoint lectures to the instructor’s email address (see above). Please note that there are specific deadlines associated with submitting the Culture & Ad assignment as well as the responses to the reflexive questions.

Beurteilungskriterien/-maßstäbe

Exam (100 points):  Students will complete a comprehensive exam online. The exam is based on all PowerPoint lecture material (50%) and all readings (50% -- textbook chapters 5, 7, 8, 9 and 10 as well as several articles – all on Moodle). Exam will be in English and will consist of a combination of multiple choice and short answer questions. There will only be one opportunity to take the comprehensive exam scheduled for Friday January 13th (13:00 – 15:00 Klagenfurt time) – there are NO make-up exams.

Culture & Ad Assignment (30 points): You are to select a recent ad (past decade) that was found to be either particularly successful – or a complete failure -- in appealing to consumers in a foreign country because the marketer either was particularly sensitive to the culture or completely ignorant of some aspect of it. Note that this assignment focuses on the success or failure of the ADVERTISING, not of the product, price or distribution. If you focus on a failed campaign, the lack of success should be due to something beyond a mere translation blooper. Given that this course is “International Advertising,” you must select a campaign that crosses borders (ie. it was crafted by a marketer in one country and destined for consumers in another). You will address your rationale in a short 2-3 page paper (double-spaced). You should draw upon the PowerPoint material dealing with culture. Please include a copy of the ad or a link so that I might access it. Electronic copy of the assignment is due Thursday January 12th (18:00 Klagenfurt time). Late papers docked 10 points. No assignments accepted after Monday January 16th (18:00 Klagenfurt time).

Responses to Reflexive Questions (20 points):  A series of reflexive questions are tied to lectures that will be posted by Monday January 9, and Tuesday January 10. By 18:00 Klagenfurt time on each of these dates, please send your responses to these questions to the instructor’s email address. Late papers docked 5 points. No reflexive assignments will be accepted after Monday January 16th (18:00 Klagenfurt time).
