Instructor: Ms. Terri Cox email: tcox@taft.org Syllabus
This course is designed to teach students basic journalistic skills such as layout, editing, copy writing, and photo design and selection. It culminates in the production of the school’s yearbook and periodic publication of “Big Blue News”, the school’s newspaper. This is a “hands-on”, student driven course. There may not be assigned homework but there will always be deadlines that will need to be met. This may require working after school and weekends.
