Project Overview:
All members of International Relations will write and produce a 3 minute international news segment. The goal of this assignment is to have students gain experience interpreting and reporting important global news stories and then sharing what they know with a wider audience. In addition to building critical thinking, public speaking and writing skills students will also learn video production and build teamwork skills.
Once your World News Update segments are completed they will be played on the school announcements and will be viewed in the hallways and on the school website. Students will have a full class period to complete their news segment. Student teams must sign up on the World News Production Calendar for a date that works for all members to research, write and produce their segment. Students who miss class on their assigned day will have an opportunity to make up the assignment on a different day with a new team.
