Learning outcomes
have a good understanding of all traditional issues related to Children as Consumers as well as the new perspectives emerging today which they will demonstrate through their working papers
- by gathering knowledge about the prior research done on children as consumers all over the world on a specific topic and extending that knowledge through the addition of new conceptual perspectives from current literature.
Course description
The course is designed like a research conference with a writing workshop. The course evolves around several themes that are related to understanding how children develop as consumers due to the influence of internal and external forces, e.g., psychological developments, family, advertising and peer groups, and examines how this influence can be turned around to produce desirable consumer attitudes and behaviors.Teaching will consist of a combination of lectures, class discussions, and coaching for writing research papers. A high level of student participation is requested. Four students will work daily to prepare a small paper for which the coaching is provided and will submit that after the course has ended.
Lecture 1: Consumer Socialization
