Description:

This course will focus on reporting and writing for the Internet in a world where convergent journalism isn't just a buzzword, but a necessity to remain relevant. Thus, this class will emphasize the importance of media integration across several platforms. In this class, we will concentrate on microblogging, blogging, and website construction. Students will learn the different components of what constitutes good online media by analyzing various samples of tweets, blogs, websites, etc. Students will then create their own tweets, blog, and website-writing and designing them according to guidelines discussed in class. All material generated features a multimedia perspective so students will use video, print, photography, and audio on their sites. We will also discuss how to use social networks and viral marketing to publicize your web presence. Prerequisites of JOU 3 & 4 are required.
