To sum up, the application of digital media technology in education has broad prospects and potential, which can improve teaching quality, enhance teacher-student interaction, promote personalized learning, enhance learning experience and improve teaching efficiency. However, there are also some challenges and problems, such as information overload, privacy protection, and high technical threshold, which need further research and discussion.

3 Problems in the teaching of advertising planning in the traditional mode

(1) Slow updating of teaching materials: Due to the rapid changes in the advertising industry, the content of teaching materials often lags behind the development of the industry and cannot reflect the latest advertising planning concepts and technologies in a timely manner.

(2) Too much theoretical knowledge and not enough practical links: Advertising planning is a highly practical course, but the traditional teaching mode pays too much attention to the teaching of theoretical knowledge and lacks opportunities for practical operation, which makes it difficult for students to understand and apply what they have learned.

(3) Single teaching method: the traditional teaching method focuses on teaching and lacks diversity, which is difficult to stimulate students' learning interest and initiative.

(4) Lack of industry ties: Advertising industry is an industry closely connected with the market, but the traditional teaching model lacks the connection with advertising industry, cannot make full use of industry resources, and limits the development potential of students.

(5) Single assessment method: The traditional assessment method is mainly based on examination, which lacks diversity and cannot fully reflect the actual ability and level of students.

To solve the above problems, the following measures can be taken to improve:

(1) Update the content of teaching materials: update the teaching materials in a timely manner, add the latest advertising planning concepts and technologies, and keep the course content synchronized with the development of the industry.

(2) Strengthen practical links: Increase opportunities for practical operations, such as simulated advertising planning cases and participation in actual projects, so that students can understand and apply what they have learned in practice.

(3) Diversified teaching methods: Adopt a variety of teaching methods, such as case analysis, group discussion, interactive question-and-answer, etc., to stimulate students' learning interest and initiative.

(4) Strengthen the connection with the industry: Invite professionals in the advertising industry to give lectures and share experience, make full use of industry resources, broaden students' horizons and improve their professional quality.

(5) Diversified assessment methods: Adopt a variety of assessment methods, such as course design, group discussion, personal report, etc., to fully reflect the actual ability and level of students.

4 Curriculum reform of advertising planning based on the application of digital media technology

The following measures can be taken in the course reform of Advertising Planning based on the application of digital media technology:

(1) Strengthen practical teaching and increase students' practical operation opportunities: In the course setting, the hours of practical teaching can be increased, so that students have more opportunities to carry out practical operation of advertising planning. At the same time, some practical advertising projects can be introduced, so that students can personally participate in the whole process of advertising planning, so as to better understand and master the theoretical knowledge of advertising planning.

(2) Introduce the latest digital media technology and update the teaching content: With the continuous development of digital media technology, the ways and methods of advertising planning are also constantly updated. In order to enable students to adapt to the latest industry needs, the teaching content can be updated in a timely manner to include the latest digital media technologies and their applications, such as artificial intelligence, big data, etc.

(3) Strengthen the connection with the advertising industry and introduce industry experts to teach: some experts in the advertising industry can be invited to teach on campus, so that students can understand the latest trends and trends of the advertising industry. At the same time, we can establish cooperative relations with some advertising companies, so that students have the opportunity to participate in the actual work of advertising planning, so as to better understand and master the practical skills of advertising planning.

(4) Adopt a variety of teaching methods to improve teaching effect: a variety of teaching methods can be adopted, such as case teaching, project teaching, group discussion, etc., to make students more actively participate in class learning, so as to improve teaching effect. At the same time, some digital media technologies, such as multimedia teaching and online teaching, can be used to make students more convenient to obtain learning resources, so as to better understand and master the theoretical knowledge and practical skills of advertising planning.

Through the above measures, the curriculum reform of "Advertising Planning" based on the application of digital media technology can effectively improve the teaching quality and students' practical ability, so as to better adapt to the demand for advertising planning talents in the new era.
