My Learning Strategies 

 Firstly, I seek the materials related the topic. Secondly I read the material slowly and trying to understand them, then write down the important point on my notebook. Finally, I understand the material because reread important notes that I have.

Synopsis 

According to Smith, D. (2010), It is true that the reporter must find the truth among the facts, statements and denials. Reporters must seek to tell the latest version of the truth. As more facts come to light, the truth will change. It means that we as reporters must know the value and only report a fact in our writing, because the essence of a news story is the truth itself.

 

Reflection 

    Journalism is the activity of find, report, and distribute some factual news both through print media such as newspapers and magazines as well as online media such as email and websites. For me, the most useful experience was the process of seeking information about journalism. I have developed my understanding about journalism, especially about it’s value and elements of news. Having discussed about the value of news, I now realize that value in the news is interesting thing that I have learn today. This knowledge is essential to me in the workplace because in this science we are not only trained to write factual news but also how we can make readers interested in the news we write. Because basically a teacher is not only required to teach and educate but also from time to time is required to make reports. Because I have not yet confident with my grammar I will now need to learn more about it. Previously, I did not notice about my interest to this subject but now i find that it’s fun enough to learn about journalism especially in the value of a news . Alternatively, this might be related to my old dream that i have dreamed to being an anchor. This is similar to an old friend who greeted me again after a long time because because I'm finally interested in this field again. Like a wish that finally came true this reveals my stress from doing something I love.

    Having read the article about journalism, I now realize that this subject is very interesting. Most importantly, I have learned that this subject made me learn a lot about new things. I have significantly developed my skills in writing and ability to analyze some article. However, I have not sufficiently improved my ability to make good and true news because it is still in the early stages of learning.This means that i have to learn and practice more. This skill will be essential to me as a learner because in the future, maybe i will be a journalist instead of teacher. Because I did not to good at grammar I will now need to learn about it. As a next step, I need to find more information and doing more exercise to improve my writing skill.
