Critical Multimedia and Journalistic Web Sites
Students are responsible for familiarizing themselves with the Web sites listed below. We will review them during class, and frequent homework and in-class assignments will emerge from these sites. This is an active list, and if you happen upon a Web site that you think will be of use to our course, we invite you to let us know, and we will add it to the list. Multimedia Journalism is a vibrant, relatively new discipline, and we want to continue to enhance our knowledge of the field.
