What to expect in Com 102


Have you ever had a class that you are extremely excited for but nervous at the same time? Yeah, me too! I am currently taking a course, Writing for News Media, at Anne Arundel Community College. I chose to take this course because my major is Mass Communication and I am currently still trying to decide exactly what I want to do, and I think this course will help me. I think this course will help me decide on what I want to do because I want to pursue my career in the media part of sports. I have considered maybe being a writer for a sports team or a public relations representative for a team. So I hope this course will help decide. I am really excited to be taking this course to help me learn the aspects in writing for news media. In this course throughout the semester I hope to gain how to write for news media, print and electronically, and the do's and don'ts. I think this course will be a positive experience for me. It will teach me to be a better writer and help me with my time management. Time management is very crucial when writing for news media, and also very crucial for my major. As a writer you must meet your deadlines. Whether I decide to pursue my career in writing for news media or something else, time management is very important. I enjoy writing but I hope to improve my writing skills in this course as well!
