吳統雄﹙ 2003/8/2 ﹚
一、教學目標 Course Objectives
This course intends to train and incubate students who want to participate in the emerging field of digital media and information communications including: versatile electronic publishing, webpage and website design, intranet administration, digital and web-based media management, e-commerce marketing, and web community development, etc.
The goal of this course takes account of the inter-discipline of humanities and information technology through media application. The learning method focuses on problem solving oriented approach. The learning activity designates a hands-on assignment and requires a complete output in the form of publishable presentation.
This assignment will be collaborated by students from different campus, even different countries. It will be the first step for accessing the 『virtual integrated campus』 and the 『virtual international interactive classrooms』. It will also be the leading experiment on developing 『remote group-work model』 of project management.
Students will experience the roles of both vertical and horizontal integration of the project. They will touch the holistic sprit and process of a real project and raise the confidence to organize and guide a team.
All assignments will be published on the web-based magazine "College Youth Web Magazine" also known as "GreenCot".
There are three applications categorized by the output of digital media:
1. Electronic Publishing, Desk Top Publishing (DTP), Corporate Publishing, and portable document: they are hard copies prepared by information technology.
2. CD-book, CD-magazine, multimedia title (such as computer slide show) and document: they are electronic files authored by various types of software and stored in CD-based or mass storage media.
3. Web Publishing, webpage, website, and web community: they are not necessary to have a local storage; they are virtual interaction in the cyber world.However, there are new growing extended forms from web-based media, such as E-book, E-magazine, which use specific player instead of PC, and mobile media.
This semester of this course will focus on the first and the second application. The third application will be delivered for the next semester. The studies of this course support a triple post area: design, technology and management.DESIGN. The teacher will introduce 『TX』s theory on Media Aesthetics』 to explore what are the tips of successful media design. The answer will be 『Style and Formation』. The class also will learn 『TX』s theory on Process Engineering』 to accomplish the media design practice in professional, longitudinal, large-scaled, portable and group work requirements.
TECHNOLOGY. This course will illuminate the concept of 『tool independency』. We will explain and reason the technology more than demonstrate the techniques. The knowledge of this course can be applied to any software. However, under the concerns of the popularity, availability, future usability and price of the tools, we have to adopt Microsoft families』 tools including platform and application. For the first semester, the teacher will guide to use tools in editing text, graphic, image, database to organize templates and produce a hard copy. In the next semester the teacher will bring students more sophisticated media elements including animation, video, sound, music and put them together into web. This course also will employ peripherals and production equipment such as scanner, digital camera, digital video recorder, MIDI…etc. The teaching of advanced tools will be decided by the progress of students』 assignment.
MANAGEMENT. Management is works more than words. Students will have good opportunity to experience the implication of goal, method, and action in management during the assignment of this course. They can learn what is planning and implementation, teamwork and integration, production and marketing. During the group work they will really touch what is communication and negotiation, one for all and all for one, incentive and checking assessment, leadership and the preparation from a team player. The teacher will also emphasize the ideas of market, risk, budgeting, profit and the media as business.
This course will lead students entering this promising interdisciplinary territory or getting ready for further research. It is an interactive place for students form pluralistic majors to enlighten and encourage each other. This course is engaging students who can take care of the whole thing and can look out the future.
Enjoy the course!

六、 報告方法
1、桌上排版文件與雜誌實作
以群體作業方式，設計編輯一本跨校聯合
雜誌，並選出一位聯合總編輯、每個校區一位（校區）總編輯、若干位幹部組織作業。每人負責寫作編輯2頁以上。如一篇文章為多人作品，則責任頁數為2頁
×人數。本學期的紙本雜誌，將作為下學期網路雜誌的基礎。
2、雜誌企畫案（全體）
每校區分組提出3-6個企畫案，由網路上傳成果區，經報告討論後，由同學普選出校區候選作品，入選之小組長即當選為校區總編輯。
校區候選作品再公佈在網路上，經由兩校同學以網路投票選出聯合企畫案，入選之校區總編輯即當選為聯合總編輯。
3、雜誌成果與網路檔案（總編輯）
範本設計抉擇。
雜誌列印裝釘。
製作三管理報表。
4、期末報告
分作２次，在課堂上口頭報告。先由總編輯與幹部作整體報告，再由個人介紹報告自己的作品。
