Broadcasting

Broadcasting teaches scholars the fundamentals of journalism and journalistic responsibility as well as applying those skills to navigate the modern media landscape for radio, television, and newscasts. This information is applied to the creation of news stories covering ASTEC schools as well as current events and subjects being taught within the ASTEC curriculum. While creating these stories scholars learn script writing, pre-production, lighting, camera operation, editing, sound, and shot composition. Scholars examine the story of journalism in American history and assess the current changes in the way modern audiences consume information.
