TITLE: Journalism for the Rest of UsFridays, March 16-May 25, 2012 (11 classes) Journalism teaches you to write for life across multiple media platforms: print (newspapers and magazines), broadcast (radio and television), online (desktop and mobile) and for public relations. In this this hands-on introductory course across 11 weeks and classes, you will learn the basics of news writing and reporting with an emphasis on ethics, accuracy and social media. You will learn about Associated Press Style. Whether you want to be a journalist or work in any other profession, practicing good journalism teaches good citizenship.
