Dissect great works of journalism for story, character, dialogue, scenes, structure, transitions, verb tense, point of view, style and impact. The goal is to create memorable narrative non-fiction stories that hold a reader’s attention to the last word. We’ll operate like a newsroom to maintain a class online publication with students working to write, edit and publish stories, blog on a topic, find and post art and photos, track traffic and analytics, and market the site by engaging in social media.
