Description: |
Students learn the fundamentals of writing feature articles of newspaper length (800-1000 words) with close attention given to journalism style, structure, and the use of quotes and anecdotes. Students will write in various journalism forms—first person, profiles and sidebars—with the purpose of submitting their work for publication. (Learning Goals:CW) |
Learning Goals: |
While the main goal is to develop your writing skills, by the end of the semester you should have material that is polished enough to be pitched to actual markets. Further, you will have a sense of the journalist’s work environment, which will help prepare you for internships and jobs. *The learning goals displayed here are those for one section of this course as offered in a recent semester, and are provided for the purpose of information only. The exact learning goals for each course section in a specific semester will be stated on the syllabus distributed at the start of the semester, and may differ in wording and emphasis from those shown here. |
