Through the lecture, students know which methods of quality and evaluation research are used to empirically examine media content and can select a suitable method for dealing with a media content problem (subject competence). Through the lecture, students understand the difference between quantitative and qualitative content analysis and are able to choose the appropriate method for dealing with a media content problem (subject competence). Through the exercise, students are able to select the appropriate method of quantitative content analysis for their problem (e.g. online content analysis or audiovisual content analysis) and apply it independently according to scientific criteria (subject and methodological competence).
