JOURN-401 Advanced Journalism Practices
Advanced Journalism Practices is an opportunity
for juniors and seniors to work on a sustained
semester-long project. Students create a website
with original interviews, photography, and video
work that emulate the form and method of
traditional journalism. Each project will include
photography, graphics, text, and possibly video
and audio. The projects explore local issues and
will enable students to do original
work-researching, interviewing, reporting,
editing, designing and illustrating-for
publication. The readings, journals, blogs and
reporting for the workshop are accomplished in a
collaborative fashion with class members
critiquing each others work and examining
publications and websites that pertain to the
course's focus.
Prerequisites: JOURN-200, JOURN-201, and
Instructor permission.
