The Benefits of Bulletin Board Discussion in a Literature of Journalism Course - R. Thomas Berner, Technology Source
More than a decade ago, my journalism colleagues and I, wanting to expose our students to some of the great works of journalism at an early point in their college life, created a sophomore-level literature of journalism course. We wanted students to read books by John Hersey, Lillian Ross, Alex Haley, and Truman Capoteāto name just four of the authors whose books we regularly assign. The course was originally launched as a weekly seminar of no more than 18 students, and it subsequently has been taught as both a videoconference and a Web-based distance education course as well as a Web-enhanced residence course.
