This week we’ll start studying the purposes and processes of public relations writing. During our unit on this style of writing, you’ll produce two press releases, an email story pitch and a fact sheet. These basic PR skills will be useful in a variety of positions that you might pursue, and will also give you a good foundation if you choose to take the PR Writing course in future.
In class this week, we’ll use these two items:
- PR Newswire
- Anatomy of a Press Release assignment (used for discussion during class)
We’re also going to cover another grammar topic this week (apostrophes and possessives, woo-hoo!) and do a peer review workshop for your resume drafts.
Looking forward to another great week!
