Learning outcomes
Advanced English for publishing and journalism (m)
The course aims to provide students with specialist skills and methodologies in English for Journalism, in the wide sense of the term. At the end of the course, students will be competent in the history of newsreporting in English-speaking countries, from its early stages to the present time, touching on "mainstream", "unmediated" and "multimodal journalism" as well. Students will also be able to produce journalistic pieces with special reference to "news reports", "features" and "commentaries", as well as texts aimed at radio journalism.
At the end of the course students will have acquired the necessary tools to maintain a positive attitude towards learning so as to keep themselves regularly updated in the field.
