Testimonials – Lea Kartasi: “I prepared my Thesis on Internet media when I came across this course. It was exactly what I was looking for. The perspective of the course, starting from local to global analysis, the detailed description of the theories of the industrial world in front of the new developments in media – all were exiting and comprehensive.
