Abstract

This article focuses on the learning of history by the public relation students. For the study, each class was divided into six groups of eight to nine members. The students selected the group which they wished to join, the author asked for volunteers from the larger groups for the smaller when necessary. Students were provided with a basic bibliography and a written assignment sheet, and were put several books with chapters on public relations history on reserve. Their assignment was to study the history of the period or topic they selected and present the, important aspects to the class, including important public relation events, names, tools and terms, in a limited period of time.
