Do you check your Facebook feed often? Twitter? YouTube?
If yes, you are engaging with journalism more than you think. So come discover journalism in our new 1000-level course.
Our course is designed to introduce non-Journalism students from all disciplines at Carleton University to the colourful, consequential world of journalism, its diverse forms and functions, and its sweeping transformation in a digital age marked by the rise of social media, multi-platform storytelling and “citizen journalists.” 
Sign up to explore journalism’s evolving role as creator of communities and guardian of democracy. Discuss some of its greatest scoops and worst misdeeds.
From ancient news-sharing instincts to 21st-century expression in blogs, tweets and investigative masterpieces, JOUR 1003 surveys the ethical, political and economic contexts of journalism.
There’s no better way to fulfill 0.5 credit of your B.A. Breadth Requirement (Area 1: Culture and Communication).
Fall term: Fridays, 2:35-5:25 p.m.
