I like how your phrased "shoot first, ask questions later." That reminds me of Clay Shirky's "publish then filter" philosophy. Interesting approach, Hanson.

I threw out the TV news group work structure to planning and shooting. Instead, it's "shoot first, ask questions later." We learn by doing -- incremental but regular assignments, in-class critiques, and a culture of experimentation. That said, if I were taking this course instead of teaching it, I don't think I'd be half as imaginative or productive as what I'm seeing from these students.

I read it at work last week on Peter Shankman's blog. Now a PR case study :) "Be Careful What You Post" http://shankman.com/be-careful-what-you-post/trackback/ Twitter and World of Warcraft were originally written into the screenplay, but Facebook and Mario Kart appeal more to the masses.
