1/17-1/19-Takeaways From Week

Besides the first day of instruction, next week class session was great. Professor taught us the importance of brainstorming story ideas. She told the class to be observant in our everyday life. She then gave us some adaptive tools and tips that can help us in are future journalist years. There was three main points that stood out to me..they were to:

· Look at things through a reporter’s eyes.

· Write down ideas (keep journal).

· Look through a publication’s archives.

We also learned about drawing an "idea web" for brainstorming. It was very interesting and entertaining to see other peoples ideas in the class. The homework reading was also a pleasant experience to read.
