Current Events and Journalism

Pre-requisite

None

Course description

In this course, students explore current events – local, national, and international – that impact their lives and examine the ways in which media cover those events. While studying current events and media, students also learn about foundational journalistic practices, and transform our classroom into a functioning newsroom tasked with producing Interlochen Arts Academy's newspaper, The Interlochen Times. All students will assume roles as Times staffers, and some will take on leadership roles for the publication.
