Journaling World History
For this assignment, you will be writing from a journalistic point of view addressing a major event/theme/person/group of people/idea in Latin American history (1500-Present). Please refer to your textbook for ideas.TEXTBOOK:
Chasteen, John Charles. Born in Blood and Fire: A Concise History of Latin America: 4th Ed. Paperback ISBN: 9780393283051
You are a newspaper reporter documenting the transitions that have been taking place throughout the region where you are reporting from. Describe the scene or sequence of events that have been happening. Here are some questions to keep in mind as you craft your report:
Where are you writing from (region/religion/country/province/class/socio-economic status)?
Describe in detail (from your journalistic angle) what is happening socially, culturally, technologically, and economically. Is there more? Any ethical or moralistic conversations/debates that you have observed. This report should be at least 400 words.
Please include a picture of what you are describing. You could copy and paste 1-3 images from doing a basic google search in your report. Be sure that the images correspond to what you are writing about. You will treat this like if it were an actual newspaper (title of paper/date/journalistic name/etc). The more creative and convincing you are the better. I would even consider doing some research of newspaper publications of the time / period from which you have selected to write to get ideas. The role and focal point of journalism is disseminating information to a wider audience. Is there something you feel merits reporting. Reporters/journalists/investigators are suppressed, suffer from physical violence, or face tremendous obstacles for reporting the truth. If it was not for people who have committed themselves to exposing the truth, maybe big events in history would have taken a different detour and went the other way. You need to cite your textbook for this assignment, and you will be graded on the following criteria:
The quality of the writing (grammar/mechanics/) – Your ability to investigate and analyze a specific topic/theme/issue/individual (try to focus on something specific) –
Creativity: Title/Images/(see examples under Pages Extra Credit) –
