Journalism I: The First Rough Draft of History
All Levels | A course for those who are interested in journalism in the 21st century. Topics will include opportunities with traditional media as well as podcasts, blogs, and websites; how to decide on a topic; how to find a publication/audience; how to discern between truth and misinformation; research and interview skills; how to structure a story; and the importance of details and deadlines. Students should come to the first session with an idea they want to pursue.
Beginning Fall 2021, we will be adding select in-person classes back to our course catalog. The majority of our classes will still be offered via Zoom.
If a class says IN-PERSON in its title, it will take place in person at our permanent home in Seattle.
If a class says ASYNCHRONOUS in its title, it will take place on Wet Ink, our asynchronous learning platform.
If a class does not have a marker after its title, it will take place via Zoom.
