We have the opportunity to observe journalism and English students and teachers in area high schools. These visits should total 20 hours and be conducted between Sept. 18 through the week ending Dec. 1. Plan to stay for two hours or so per visit, combining two journalism classes or some combination of journalism and English classes. Final report due Dec. 4. All readings are to be done before the class period listed so that intelligent and valuable discussions might transpire.
All numbers refer to chapters of required texts.
There will also be some handouts, usually handed out the week before they are to be read. Please note that we'll be flexible about adding readings or changing some topics below to meet your needs. Organization for classroom observations. Introspection on becoming a teacher. Developing a Curriculum.
