Students
in Windham High School’s Journalism course have been learning all about the
process of writing great stories. In addition to learning the craft, they have
a number of opportunities throughout the course to experience the real-life
world of careers in journalism.
Last
week students were provided the opportunity to tour WGME, experiencing
everything from green screens to the feeling of being on-air. They had the
chance to interact with people who have made a career out of journalism and
were immersed in the real-life application of the work they have been doing in
the class.
Later
in the week, Lorraine Glowczak of The Windham Eagle joined the class to talk
about her experiences as a writer and editor. They had the opportunity to ask
questions about the process of writing articles, keeping deadlines, working for
a newspaper, and much more.
