Degree Course: COMMUNICATION STUDIES
A.Y. 2024/2025
Conoscenza e capacità di comprensione
Il corso di studio mira alla formazione di laureati in possesso:
-delle conoscenze e delle capacità di comprensione dei fenomeni e delle attività caratteristiche dei
diversi settori della comunicazione, relative ai compiti professionali nei media, nella pubblica
amministrazione, negli organismi della comunicazione internazionale e interculturale, nei diversi
apparati dell'industria culturale e nel settore aziendale, dei servizi e dei consumi;
-delle competenze di base relative alla comunicazione e all'informazione, incluse quelle relative alle
nuove tecnologie e alle forme editoriali on line, nonché della capacità di applicare le relative
conoscenze nello svolgimento di attività di comunicazione e di relazione con il pubblico in aziende
private, negli enti pubblici e nel no-profit;
-delle abilità necessarie per svolgere attività redazionali nei diversi settori dei media e negli enti
pubblici e privati;
-della capacità di utilizzare, in forma scritta e orale, la lingua inglese, oltre ad avvalersi in modo
efficace della lingua italiana in relazione alla comunicazione di informazioni, idee, problemi e soluzioni;
-delle abilità di base necessarie alla produzione di testi informativi e comunicativi per i diversi settori
produttivi e ambiti culturali ed editoriali.
Tali capacità di applicazione delle conoscenze apprese saranno acquisite principalmente attraverso attività di laboratorio (scrittura, media, progettazione telematica, analisi e comunicazione dei dati, informatica) in relazione a obiettivi specifici e mediante attività esterne quali tirocini formativi presso imprese e soggiorni in università di altri paesi europei, nel quadro di accordi nazionali e internazionali.
I risultati attesi saranno verificati sia mediante le prove di esame e di laboratorio, sia nei momenti di discussione in aula e di confronto tra gli studenti che si creeranno in occasione della presentazione di tesine in itinere e grazie alla formazione di gruppi di lavoro.
Capacità di applicare conoscenza e comprensione
Al momento del conseguimento della laurea in Scienze della comunicazione lo studente avrà imparato ad applicare le conoscenze teoriche e metodologiche acquisite all'analisi e alla risoluzione di problemi e a casi concreti.
In particolare, lo studente dovrà essere capace di selezionare le pratiche e le metodologie di ricerca più efficaci nell'analizzare e approfondire specifici temi di indagine e/o domande di ricerca, con riferimento alle più recenti tendenze nei diversi settori delle scienze della comunicazione.
Tali competenze saranno sviluppate mediante diverse modalità didattiche: lezioni frontali, seminari, laboratori, discussioni di gruppo, stesura di elaborati.
La verifica delle competenze acquisite sarà effettuata mediante prove d'esame scritte e/o orali.
Autonomia di giudizio
A conclusione del curriculum i laureati avranno la capacità di interpretare criticamente testi scritti e interazioni orali, provenienti dalla stampa, dalla radio, dalla televisione e dalla pubblicità, nonché di formulare giudizi autonomi sui processi sociali, economici, giuridici e politici ad essi sottesi e sui loro effetti nella formazione dell'opinione pubblica.
L'autonomia di giudizio sarà promossa dall'acquisizione di conoscenze analitiche, in ambito linguistico-comunicativo, cognitivo e delle scienze sociali, e sviluppata grazie a pratiche di laboratorio.
I risultati attesi saranno verificati anzitutto mediante le verifiche rappresentate dalle prove di esame e di laboratorio; sono inoltre previsti momenti di discussione in aula e di confronto tra gli studenti, sia in occasione della presentazione di tesine in itinere sia mediante la formazione di gruppi di lavoro.
Abilità comunicative
A conclusione del curriculum i laureati avranno percorso attraverso lo studio teorico ( discipline semiotiche e linguistiche) e l'analisi storico-sociale e giuridico dei media ( discipline sociali e mediologiche), il panorama dei processi di comunicazione dal piano interpersonale a quello sociale politico e di impresa istituzionale e in virtù delle esercitazioni pratiche cui avranno atteso possiederanno capacità di comunicare con chiarezza contenuti relativi a specifici ambiti, anche con l'uso delle nuove tecnologie e delle forme editoriali on line.
Saranno in grado di utilizzare, in forma scritta e orale, la lingua inglese e possiederanno competenze atte ad un uso efficace della lingua italiana in relazione alla comunicazione di informazioni, idee, problemi e soluzioni.
Possiederanno infine abilità
tecnico-pratiche necessarie alla produzione di testi informativi, comunicativi e argomentativi.
Tali abilità saranno raggiunte attraverso la riflessione approfondita e continua sulle varie tematiche di cui fanno esperienza durante le lezioni, attraverso seminari, discussioni di gruppo.
L'acquisizione di tali competenze sarà verificata attraverso verifiche scritte e orali all'interno dei singoli insegnamenti e nell'ambito della discussione della prova finale.
Capacità di apprendimento
A conclusione del curriculum i laureati avranno sviluppato capacità di apprendimento necessarie al proseguimento degli studi integrati nelle lauree magistrali che preparano professionalità nelle quali la comunicazione è, rispettivamente, oggetto di ricerca sistematica nell'ambito delle scienze cognitive oppure assume un ruolo decisivo di pratica operativa (dal giornalismo ai sistemi editoriali, dalla comunicazione pubblica e d'impresa alla pubblicità, dalla teoria della comunicazione alle aree critiche della società dell'informazione).
Più specificamente, lo studente deve mettere a punto capacità di comprensione della letteratura di ricerca scientifica e tecnologica che si tradurranno: 1) in seno alla laurea magistrale in Scienze cognitive della comunicazione e dell'azione, in specifiche capacità laboratoriali; 2) nell'ambito della laurea magistrale in Informazione, editoria e giornalismo, nella capacità di applicare una metodologia di ricerca adeguata al fine di analizzare criticamente le modalità comunicative nei settori pubblicitari (pubblici e privati), indagare i contesti sociali della comunicazione, utilizzare metodi di ergonomia cognitiva nella produzione di comunicazioni su piattaforme multimediali.
Al fine di garantire e monitorare, nell'arco del percorso di studi, l'avvenuta acquisizione delle suddette capacità, i moduli impartiti prevedono, accanto alla lezione frontale e alla classica prova di esame conclusiva (scritta/orale, prova pratica), momenti di discussione in aula e di confronto tra gli studenti resi possibili dalla formazione di gruppi di lavoro e la conseguente presentazione di tesine in itinere.
Per quanto riguarda invece l'acquisizione della capacità di applicare le conoscenze apprese, essa sarà garantita e monitorata attraverso attività di laboratorio (scrittura, media, progettazione telematica, analisi e comunicazione dei dati, informatica) in relazione a obiettivi specifici e mediante attività esterne quali tirocini formativi presso imprese e soggiorni in università di altri paesi europei, nel quadro di accordi nazionali e internazionali.

Orientamento in ingresso
Le azioni di orientamento in ingresso sono improntate alla realizzazione di processi di raccordo con la scuola secondaria di secondo grado.
Si concretizzano sia in attività informative e di approfondimento dei caratteri formativi dei Corsi di Studio (CdS) dell'Ateneo, sia in un impegno condiviso da scuola e università per favorire lo sviluppo di una maggiore consapevolezza da parte degli studenti e delle studentesse nel compiere scelte coerenti con le proprie conoscenze, competenze, attitudini e interessi.
Le attività promosse si articolano in:
a) incontri e iniziative rivolte alle future matricole;
b) incontri per la presentazione delle Lauree Magistrali rivolte a studenti delle triennali;
c) sviluppo di servizi online (pagine social, sito), realizzazione e pubblicazione di materiali informativi sull'offerta formativa dei CdS (guide di dipartimento, guida breve di Ateneo, newsletter dell'orientamento).
L'attività di orientamento prevede una serie attività, distribuite nel corso dell'anno accademico, alle quali partecipano tutti i Dipartimenti e i CdS:
• Orientamento Next Generation Roma Tre, il progetto comune di tutti gli Atenei della Regione Lazio, a cui partecipa attivamente anche Roma Tre, è stato avviato nell'a.a.
2022- 2023 e si concluderà nel 2026.
Finanziato dai fondi del PNRR, è pensato per sostenere le studentesse e gli studenti della nostra Regione nella scelta consapevole del proprio percorso di formazione successivo al ciclo scolastico, nonché a definire la propria traiettoria personale e professionale.
Nel primo anno di attivazione Roma Tre ha raggiunto:
- 2.597 studenti inseriti in piattaforma del terzo o quarto anno di corso del target iniziale;
- presenze effettive: 2.330 studenti, che hanno raggiunto il 70% delle presenze;
- N.
125 corsi erogati;
- N.
accordi con le scuole: 14 convenzioni firmate
- N° Formatori interni: più di 100
• Giornate di Vita Universitaria (GVU), si svolgono ogni anno nell'arco di circa 3 mesi e sono rivolte a studentesse e studenti degli ultimi due anni della scuola secondaria superiore.
Si svolgono in tutti i Dipartimenti dell'Ateneo e costituiscono un'importante occasione per le future matricole per vivere la realtà universitaria.
Gli incontri sono strutturati in modo tale che accanto alla presentazione dei Corsi di Laurea, studentesse e studenti possano anche fare un'esperienza diretta di vita universitaria con la partecipazione ad attività didattiche, laboratori, lezioni o seminari, alle quali partecipano anche studenti seniores che svolgono una significativa mediazione di tipo tutoriale.
Partecipano annualmente circa 4.000 studenti; nel 2023 hanno partecipato 3.255 studenti in presenza.
Inoltre le GVU 2023 hanno totalizzato su YouTube 4.266 visualizzazioni.
• Incontri nelle scuole: nel 2023 l'Ufficio orientamento ha ricevuto 36 inviti.
Le richieste sono state lavorate nel seguente modo:
- se la scuola ha richiesto la presentazione dell'offerta formativa dell'intero Ateneo sono stati organizzati gli incontri di “Orientamento tra pari”: l'idea nasce dalla consolidata esperienza legata all'importanza di realizzare un orientamento, basato sul peer tutoring.
Nel 2023 sono stati realizzati 5 incontri on line alla presenza del personale dell'Ufficio con i borsisti (sia dei dipartimenti che dell'ufficio) presso:
a) il Liceo Peano di Roma (52 studenti);
b) Liceo artistico Caravaggio di Roma (200 studenti);
c) Liceo Metelli di Terni (20 studenti);
d) IT Fermi di Sulmona (200 studenti);
e) Informagiovani Roma Capitale (60 studenti)
Per un totale di 530 studenti.
Presso l'Assistant College Counseling St Stephen's School di Roma l'Ufficio è stato presente solo con un banchetto per la distribuzione di guide in inglese e in italiano a circa 60 studenti.
Si evidenzia che partecipano varie scuole di altre Regioni, grazie alla possibilità dell'online.
- se la scuola richiede un incontro specifico con uno o più dipartimenti, concordemente con quanto stabilito in Gloa (Gruppo di Lavoro per l'Orientamento di Ateneo) ogni invito viene inoltrato ai referenti Gloa presso i dipartimenti e le scuole, affinché realizzino i loro incontri;
• Attività di orientamento sviluppate dai singoli Dipartimenti, mediante incontri in presenza e online;
• Orientarsi a Roma Tre nel 2023 si è svolta in presenza presso il Nuovo Palazzo degli Uffici di Via Ostiense 133.
Nelle aule del dipartimento di Giurisprudenza sono state organizzate le presentazioni dell'offerta formativa dei Dipartimenti che sono state seguite anche in diretta streaming e che poi sono state caricate su YouTube.
I servizi sono stati presentati nelle torri, dove sono state distribuite le guide e dove le segreterie didattiche hanno anche organizzato delle postazioni con attività laboratoriali.
La sera è stato offerto un concerto di musica dal vivo ai partecipanti.
Hanno partecipato all'evento circa 4.000 studenti.
• Salone dello Studente a ottobre – novembre di ogni anno l'Ufficio orientamento partecipa all'evento organizzato da Campus presso la Nuova Fiera di Roma.
Il 17-19 ottobre 2023 è stato affittato uno stand lineare lungo 8 mt e organizzato con dei monitor dove giravano i PPT elaborati dall'Ufficio.
Sono stati distribuiti 8000 zaini e 8000 guide di Ateneo e bigliettini QR code.
Sono stati incontrati nelle aule più di 1.500 studenti in presenza e on line.
• Open Day Magistrali tra aprile e maggio 2023 è stata organizzata la prima edizione del progetto che ha visto lo sviluppo di 13 eventi dipartimentali utili a presentare l'Offerta magistrale e il post lauream.
Hanno partecipato 857 studenti, soprattutto di Roma Tre.
I servizi di orientamento online messi a disposizione dei futuri studenti universitari sono nel tempo aumentati, tenendo conto dello sviluppo delle nuove opportunità di comunicazione tramite web e tramite social.
Inoltre, durante tutte le manifestazioni di presentazione dell'offerta formativa, sono illustrati quei siti web di Dipartimento, di Ateneo, Portale dello studente, etc., che possono aiutare gli studenti nella loro scelta.
Infine, l'Ateneo valuta, di volta in volta, l'opportunità di partecipare ad ulteriori occasioni di orientamento in presenza ovvero online (Euroma2 e altre iniziative).

Orientamento in ingresso per studenti detenuti aa.
2023-24
Le attività di orientamento sono promosse dal Polo Universitario Penitenziario Roma Tre (PUP Roma Tre) composto dal Delegato del Rettore per la formazione universitaria negli istituti penitenziari, dalla Responsabile dell'Area studenti d'Ateneo, dai docenti referenti e dal personale amministrativo dei Dipartimenti interessati.
Le azioni di orientamento in ingresso sono improntate alla realizzazione di processi di raccordo con la popolazione diplomata degli Istituti penitenziari e si concretizzano in attività di carattere informativo sui Corsi di Studio dell'Ateneo considerati accessibili alle persone private della libertà personale.
Le azioni di orientamento nelle carceri, oltre a favorire lo sviluppo di una maggiore consapevolezza da parte dei detenuti diplomati nel compiere scelte coerenti con le proprie conoscenze, competenze, attitudini e interessi, rappresenta anche la prima tappa di un processo di rieducazione.
La presentazione dell'offerta formativa ai detenuti diplomati prevede l'organizzazione di eventi nei principali istituti penitenziari del Lazio (CR Roma-Rebibbia, Roma-Rebibbia Femminile, Velletri, Civitavecchia e Viterbo) svolti nello stesso periodo e in forma analoga, naturalmente ridotta, alla manifestazione 'Orientarsi a Roma Tre'.

CRITICAL THINKING
(objectives)
This course aims at (1) developing and training the ability to recognize and evaluate arguments and a variety of forms of reasoning, and to tell apart good arguments from bad arguments, according to the definitions provided through the course; (2) developing the capability of solving reasoning problems that refer to the many different forms of reasoning that we discuss in the course; (3) securing a suitable understanding of basics aspect of propositional logic and quantified logic, and of basics of probability calculus, inductive and abductive reasoning; (4) securing an understanding of the function reasoning plays in rational discussion and the exchange of theses.
Objectives (1) – (4) are crucial since today, mainly due to the presence of social networks, our social interaction comes with an exchange of opinions that is increasingly more frequent and our connections with other agents are wider and wider. It has been acknowledged that the speed and frequency of these exchanges goes along with diminished reasoning skills, and this jeopardizes the understanding of problems of public interest on which our opinion is solicited.

LITERATURE AND VISUAL ARTS
(objectives)
L-FIL-LET/14 LITERATURE AND VISUAL ARTS (12 credits, Bachelor's Degree) The module aims to analyze the functions and the pertinence of literary writing, considered in the span of relationships that binds it to the most meaningful visual languages of the twentieth century and the first years of the new millennium: such as, above all, cinema and entire system of the figurative arts. These relationships will be established from time to time with respect to a range of social and anthropological themes considered to be of greater importance today, so as to contribute to an intellectual formation capable of being critically oriented in the complexity of our present. Above all, following a path of this type, the continuous intersection that is established today between expressive languages of different origin and function will be privileged, so that the student, at the end of the course, will be able to independently recognize the intermediate intertwining proposed continuously from the current communication system. To this end, specific previous knowledge is not required.

LABORATORY OF SELF-CONTROL AND EMOTIONAL REGULATION. THEORIES AND PRACTICES.
(objectives)
What is self-control and what is emotion regulation? How do they work; what psychological and brain mechanisms do they depend on? Why is voluntary control of psychological processes, such as staying focused, resisting distractions, managing a negative emotion, inhibiting rumination or stopping the mind from wandering, so difficult? And why does voluntary control of actions often fail? That is, for what reasons do we relapse into habits we no longer want to have, into various forms of addiction, or frequently fail to contain an inappropriate impulse or the expression of a potentially harmful emotion? Are there techniques or exercises capable to improve self-control and emotion regulation? What psychological and brain mechanisms are they based on? How are they performed and what evidence of effectiveness exists in the scientific literature? The Workshop on Self-Control and Emotional Regulation. Theories and Practices, aims to provide participants with knowledge of the main theoretical elements and models of explanations of the processes of self-control and emotion regulation, between neuroscience, psychosocial science and philosophy. At the same time, the Lab aims to teach exercises and techniques useful for improving self-regulatory capacity, including several Mindfulness based practices, illustrating its scientific basis and experimental verification of effectiveness. At the end of the Workshop, the student should know and understand the main explanatory models of self-control and emotion regulation and will have a basic mastery of the principal and scientifically validated techniques, exercises and trainings for cognitive enhancement, self-control and emotional regulation. If the number of participants will be sufficient, the Workshop may involve conducting an experimental study designed for measuring the impact of training on some basic variables of self-control, mood, impulsivity, and perceived stress level.
