Syllabus Exchange

Sponsored by BEA

The Syllabus Exchange, in partnership with the Broadcast Education Association, gives educators a way to enhance their curriculum by sharing ideas and teaching materials. Our goal is to provide a database of course syllabi, assignments, exercises and other teaching materials that can be shared. Our focus is in the area of journalism, electronic media and communication studies. We welcome not only editorial-sequence syllabi but also those from related fields, such as advertising and public relations. We also welcome high school and other teachers.

While we review each upload for appropriate content, we don't edit or warrant the material.

Here's how it works. When you share a syllabus, assignment or other teaching material, you'll receive 100 Poynter NewsU Training Points. To download a training resource, you will need 50 points [for each resource]. To get everyone started, we are giving every registered user at Poynter's NewsU 100 points. That means you can download two resources before you start sharing.

    Grading for Blog:

    (1) Poor: The subject does not pertain to international reporting or international news.

    (2) Okay: The blogger fulfilled the assignment but it shows little reflection. It is simply a “me too” answer. (3) Average: This entry, or post may be well written, and even may add something to the discussion—offers comparisons and contrasts, etc. However, the entry, or post, does not provide support for the positions expressed. For example, where are the links? (4) Good: This entry or post is well written and adds to the discussion; illuminates the issue.
