Prüfungsinformationen

Im Fall von online durchgeführten Prüfungen sind die Standards zu beachten, die die technischen Geräte der Studierenden erfüllen müssen, um an diesen Prüfungen teilnehmen zu können.

Prüfungsmethode/n

Exam (100 points):  On Friday afternoon January 12th (13:00 – 15:00) students will complete a comprehensive exam. The exam is based on PowerPoint lecture material (50%) and all readings (50% -- textbook chapters 5, 7, 8, 9 and 10 as well as several articles).  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.  Exam will be in English and will consist of a combination of multiple choice and/or true/false plus short answer questions. There will be only one opportunity to take the comprehensive exam scheduled for Friday January 12th – there are NO make-up exams. 

Culture & Ad Assignment (40 points): Students 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.  Please 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 is destined for consumers in another country). 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 cite your sources at the end of your paper. For print ads, please include a copy of the ad. For broadcast ads, please provide source where this ad can be accessed. Hard copy of the assignment is due in class Wednesday morning January 10th (9:00 am Klagenfurt time). Late papers docked 25%. NOTE:  No assignments will be accepted after Friday January 12th, 15:00.  

 

Class Participation (10 points):  Students will also be evaluated on seminar participation.
