A nice overview of journalism's purpose, highlighting the tasks and hurdles involved in reporting the news.
Material is great, and have submitted everything early. Just waiting to be peer reviewed and have people to peer review so I can finish this module completely.
It has been really useful and informative to learn from knowledgeable teachers, and very enriching to have classmates from such diverse places.
Thank you!
