Media Response Log Assignment
Overview:
The media log is a place for you to jot down your responses, reactions, thoughts and ideas about the media. Each entry can be anything related to political communication – ideally, it should be something current. It can also be local or national politics.Throughout the semester, you will be asked to log what you are viewing, reading, or discussing with regard to a particular topic. You can log entries based on articles, videos, television programs, advertisements, social media posts, press conferences, etc.

Media Log Requirements:
• If you are logging a social media post – it needs to be from an influential source (i.e. a politician, journalist, or prominent figure. It should NOT be from a friend on Facebook or some random person you follow on Twitter).
• Media log entries (Media Response Entry portion) should be a minimum of 150 words or enough to sufficiently convey your reactions or thoughts.

What typical entries will include one or all of the following:
• Your thoughts and observations on the coverage of media events, ongoing news stories or communication from politicians, either locally or nationally.
• Your evaluation of the news or video sources.
• Your reaction to social media posts
• Your responses to particular issues in the media based on the five key questions for media literacy.
1. Who created the message?
2. What techniques are used to attract my attention?
3. How might different people understand this message differently from me?
4. What lifestyles, values, and points of view are represented in, or omitted from this message?
5. Why was this message sent?

Evaluation of the Media Log:
1. Writing is personal, revealing as much about the observer as what is being observed.
2. Each media log has a clear and single focus.
3. Entries should contain a variety of topics.
4. Entries should attempt to understand media’s purpose and intentions.
5. Entries are specific rather than generalized. Use detail and reference to support your opinion.
6. There must be titles and dates.
7. Entries are proofread for grammar, punctuation and spelling errors.

As a nurse leader, you need to have the skills and knowledge to collaborate and communicate with those who plan for and manage change. This

capacity is valuable in any health care setting and for many different types of change. Furthermore, it is essential to be able to evaluate a

change effort and determine if it is promoting improved outcomes and making a positive difference within the department or unit, or for the

organization as a whole.
To prepare:
• Review Chapters 7 and 8 in the course text. Focus on the strategies for planning and implementing change in an organization, as well as

the roles of nurses, managers, and other health care professionals throughout this process.
• Reflect on a specific change that has recently occurred in your organization or one in which you have worked previously. What was the

catalyst or purpose of the change?
• How did the change affect your job and responsibilities?
• Consider the results of the change and whether or not the intended outcomes have been achieved.
• Was the change managed skillfully? Why or why not? How might the process have been improved?

Post a summary of a specific change within an organization and describe the impact of this change on your role and responsibilities. Explain the

rationale for the change, and whether or not the intended outcomes have been met. Assess the management of the change, and propose suggestions

for how the process could have been improved.
