This course explores digital marketing strategy and its implementation. The course will introduce the techniques and practices which support the digital marketing process; discussing how digital marketing has transformed the relationship between marketers and audiences.

This is an online course of 10 credits. This requires 100 hours of student-led learning. Unlike a face to face course, online learning can be divided into directed and guided learning, rather than contact and non-contact hours. What is described as a lecture is, in fact, a series of teacher led activities (TLA) or directed teaching, such as direction to reading, video, audio, case studies or other resources. Workshops are synchronous online events which allow student-led exploration of a specified topic. This course combines TLAs (lectures in this form) with workshops focussing on a work-based group project, supported by a guest speaker and the use of simulation. Assessment is based on group work with presentation, based on a work study and also a company report.
