Journalism & New Media 1

Students in Journalism & New Media I will be reading, communicating, critically thinking, analyzing,  writing, and producing print, digital, and media works in this course. The course will cover the entire process of journalism and students will engage in inquiry-based units designed to develop interest in print, broadcast, photo, online, and sports journalism. Newsgathering, writing, editing, interviewing, deadlines, layout, design and current publication trends, creating effective visual and audio content, storyboarding, editing, and planning productions will be emphasized. This course also provides students the opportunity to work with a variety of equipment and technologies and to explore production development using Adobe’s Editing Suite. Students enrolled in the course learn effective communication techniques through writing, on-camera performance, as well as directing and presentation of ideas to the class while widening their computer literacy skills. Exemplary student projects will be archived on the ThisisYork.org website and in the Yearbook.
