Current Events...

Today in class we are going to be talking about the idea of Current Events. These are my ideas on the subject:
Everyone when signing up for classes, First Year Students will all sign up for the class called CURRENT EVENTS.
Class will meet 2wice a week
Students will take out a subscritption to newspaper
Class discussions will pertain to whatever they have been reading in the newspaper and how to be able to distinguish propaganda from real stories.
I think it would be cool to have someone come and talk to the students such as a reporter...so then they would be able to tell the students what the main part of the story is and how to distinguish it and how they go about getting their stories.
Maybe have students write a short paper every once and a while about a current event of their choice.
I think we should still have gathering Jamboree thing for all the students
I think each class would get to pick a certain current event and be able to present it however they feel neccesary.
Each class would have to present a different current event. To determine who picks first you could do like a lottery thing or something...
but thats all i got for right now....im sure in class we will have reached some more ideas and thoughts!
Laters!
