Methinks a new research/reading assignment is growing in my imagination…
- Ask Composition II students to first analyze the graphic and how it categorizes news.
- Then, students identify articles/news clips from each category and develop comparative analyses to check the veracity of the graphic’s argument.
- Also, students conduct research about journalism, as in how it began, how it has evolved, and how it sees itself today.
- Finally, write an argument about news, addressing the problematic issue of real news and fake news.
