At first I thought that the class would be very difficult and that I would not be able to do all the work. When I signed up for it, I didnâÂÂt have much expectation for it. I thought it would be easy and that we would learn basic writing. I did not consider that we would have to do reporting for it, which is what got me very nervous in the beginning. As the class progressed, however, I learned a ton of stuff that I can use in my life. I especially like the AP style class. The reporting was first very intimidating, but as time went on it became fun. Writing my first article was very challenging and I didnâÂÂt know where to start but now I feel like I am way more experienced and better at writing. Journalism had never been a major choice for me before, but now after taking this class I am definitely considering it. It was really nice to see all the guest speakers come in so we could see more into the major and I feel like this class was the perfect insight to the journalism major. Jeanmarie was the best teacher I could’ve asked for. She was very understanding and thought the class very well. It was super informative as well as fun, which overall creates a great summer experience. The news quizzes helped me know what is going on in the world, which I honestly never had a clue of. The only bad thing about the news quizzes was that I always read and even reread before the class began but always seemed to get bad grades on it. If it was me personally I would rather have a news quiz in discussion form so we could just talk about what we read instead of having to remember details. That is my only criticism of the class everything else was perfect.
