 Learning Strategis

Before the class begin,I was read a little bit the material who given by group 5 about Background Research ,and then in the class I listened to my friend who was giving a presentation on the Background Research. After the presentation was finished, it was continued with a question and answer session or discussion, during the discussion I had my own view on journalism that could affect better learning. after the class is over I look for myself what methods can be used if we want to develop the  Background Research itself

 

 

Reflection

 From the online meeting, I learned about the importance of background research in preparing for an interview. This involves gathering information about the topic or the interviewee through various methods such as reading articles, searching the internet, and asking people who know something about the subject.

In addition, I learned about the different methods of gathering news, such as observation, telephone conversations, research, and interviews. Observation involves seeing an event take place and reporting on it accurately. Telephone conversations are useful for saving time and reaching busy individuals. Research is important for verifying and amplifying facts in news stories and adding depth to feature stories.

Overall, I gained a better understanding of the different methods of gathering information and the importance of being thorough and accurate in reporting.
