Multimedia News Writing and Editing

Catalog description

This class offers study and practice in news gathering and writing. Through mostly hands-on training in news reporting, writing, and editing, students will learn both traditional journalism skills and multimedia production, such as videography and photography. Students will produce news stories for a multi-platform news online production, which may include a website, a Facebook page, a Twitter account, and a YouTube channel. Stories will be assigned, reported, written, published online (when publishable) and shared on social media. All platforms are open to the public. Prerequisite: ENG 110 or ENG 112. Offered Annually.
