In this course you will develop a deep understanding of what interactive marketing entails. Through participating in activities you will learn about what the defining elements are of interactive marketing, how these elements facilitate a mutual exchange of information between marketer and consumer, how these elements are used to identify consumer needs and to foster relationships, and how use these elements can inform strategies to fulfil consumers’ needs. You will apply this gained understanding through identifying and creating a successful consumer-centred interactive marketing strategy.

Overview of Learning Activities

This course brings together interactive marketing strategy and implementation. This course adopts an activity-based approach to learning, meaning that understanding of concepts will arise through the active participation in activities in and outside of class. This means minimal formal lecturing will take place, and instead learning occurs through interaction with the content, the lecturer, and your peers. This course follows a structural alignment approach, which means that each activity follows on and builds from the learning occurred in the previous activity, and that each activity produces an element of learning that will directly be assessed in one of the three assessments, and, finally, that each assessment provides a basis of learning through submission and feedback relevant for the next assessment.


Overview of Learning Resources

Readings and related information are available online through myRMIT/Canvas and/or Miro. These may include topic notes and slides, a study schedule, assessment details, links to relevant information, readings and exercises and activities, and communication tools to facilitate collaboration with your peers and sharing of information. You are expected to have done the specific readings and preparatory activities before for the workshops and be prepared to contribute to in-class discussions and activities. Due to the rapidly changing nature of interactive marketing issues, strategies and tactics, there is no set textbook for this course. You may wish to access additional resources as required. Resources are also available online through RMIT Library databases and other facilities. Visit the RMIT library website for further details. Assistance is available online via our chat and email services, face to face at our campus libraries or via the telephone on (03) 9925 2020. Additional resources and/or sources to assist your learning will be identified by your course coordinator and will be made available to you as required during the teaching period.
