Description:

SPT210 (Formerly: BUS210) A sports reporter needs to find the storyline of a given sport and share the story in a way that brings the reader to the event. This course will teach students to dig deeper for a more meaningful storyline and avoid simply repeating statistics and scores. Students will learn how to approach each assignment with a planning process before, during, and after the game that will help them assess and master the story on a deadline. This course has a heavy focus on collaboration, scripting, research, and communication skills. Students will prepare, conduct, and edit sports-related interviews; compose scripts for internet-based sports broadcasts; analyze and review game reels; learn rules for various sports being studied; and interact with professionals in sports broadcasting.
