As you listen and read, you must underline the key words and key concepts on each page.

Journalism 11A Homework Help

Look a little further down on my website and you will find a post titled "Journalism Homework Help." This will really help you when you research our topic. Also-- REMEMBER that you are choosing three commonplaces that are RELEVANT to your arguments, not simply the first three commonplaces that pop up when you search for famous quotes about truth.

If you have difficulty reaching the New York Times articles because they require you to log in, send me an email and I will email you the classes' personal login name and password.

Have a good weekend and I hope you learn a lot about this as you study!

Journalism 11B Audio Documentary Site

Here is the link to the audio file of This American Life's audio documentary 'The Giant Pool of Money.' You should listen to at least 30 minutes of it this weekend and remember to write down key words and concepts from the program. Also, if you have questions about vocabulary, write those words down and we can go through them in class on Wednesday. Have a LOVELY weekend!

Journalism Homework Help

Hi Guys,
When I was doing some research on our assigned topic, I found this archive of articles in the New York Times and it helped me a lot! Click on this  and it should take you there. If any of you find something similar on a Korean news source, please post the link to it in the comments section of this post. 

I also found many useful and informative articles on The Economist's website, this list of articles about South Korea and this one specifically about Minerva and free speech in Korea. Thank you, Se Hyun, for telling me about it! I am sure that many of you know of this story from the Korean newspaper or from the internet, but I wanted to put this one up so that you can see the English vocabulary they use.

Just to clarify: The research notes you need to take are to help you write your essay and to help you verbally reply to questions in your "interview." They are supposed to be a tool for you, so put them in the format that you need them to be in. Obviously, because I cannot read Korean, your notes need to be written dominantly in English.
