Worknight is TONIGHT! Don't miss it. Fun for all. We will begin at 3:30.
Tuesday: Resume writing workshop during class. If you have a resume bring it to class since you will be updating it with new information. If you do NOT have a resume you will be developing one. A hard copy of your resume will be due on Friday, September 24 at the beginning of class. Independent Study students will need to let Wojo know which class you will be attending. You may come in A, 1 or 2. The workshop will begin promptly after the bell, so please do not be late to class.
One of the features of new media is interaction with readers. Here's a good example from SFGate.com. The blogger posts a reader question, gives a bit of an answer, then asks for additional input. See what people have to say.
Another feature of new media is hyper-linking or hot-linking, where an online article contains links to other sites (or other articles within a site). Notice the blurb above has two hot-links. The first is to the main SFGate site and the second is to the specific blog.
If you have questions about the Friedman article (instructions for the assignment are in yesterday's announcements), please be sure to ask now rather than later. Don't forget that it's due no later than noon on Saturday.
TODAY Since most of the stories for the September issue are completed, start thinking about the stories you would like to do in October. Be prepared on Wednesday to pitch your ideas. Remember to prepare at least one idea for news, sports, feature, arts and opinion. Reviews fit under arts (generally speaking).
Do you have a stylebook? If not, see Wojo so that you can go get one in the library.
Davidson asks: Who wants a yearbook shirt? Many newspaper students have commented on the utter coolness of the Got Yearbook? t-shirt yearbook staffers will be sporting each Friday. Davidson is collecting names for people who want hoodies or t's. Hoodies are $15 (yes, yearbook staffers paid for theirs), T-shirts are $7. We need an order of 12 or more for Davidson to get his dream hoodie. Please help him out.
