Objectives:
The course is designed to develop reading skills especially, when one wants to find information quickly, to identify what is important in a text, to compare different sources of information and to read critically. The course also teaches how different texts are structured and how best a student can deal with syntax and vocabulary problems.
The course is also student-centric and if students participate actively in the classroom deliberations, they would certainly evolve to become proficient readers in English.
Course Outcomes:
By the end of the course, students will be able to:
CO1.Determine the meaning of words by using context clues
CO2.Distinguish between definitions and any accompanying negative and/or positive connotations and use those to help determine facts, opinions, blended statements or an author’s bias.
CO3. Use pre-reading skills to predict content of texts
CO.4 Annotate effectively for active reading, increased comprehension and retention.

This course provides students with practical skills in the capture and packaging of sound (voice and ambient sound) and image (moving images) in an online journalistic context. Future journalists will be expected to enter the profession with a 'grab bag' of skills across the written, visual and aural modes, and will also be required to be able to produce 'packaged' stories for publication on a variety of platforms. With a strong skills focus, this course provides students with hands-on experience with equipment for sound capture, image capture and online publishing. It will also expose students to deadline-driven tasks, set to emulate the intense and demanding working environment of multi-skilled journalists. Legal, professional and ethical issues in relation to broadcast journalistic practice will also be discussed.
