Learning objectives

The basic direction within the course is to develop the students' ability to use as many adequate elements of beautiful and creative writing as possible in the construction of media form and in the preparation of media content, and through the balance of factography and description and with the adequate application of stylistic figures, the focalization procedure, the third-person angle, online stories and more.

Learning outcomes

Students will have the opportunity to hear about the importance of the journalist-writer's writing skills through favoring details, originality and dynamics, and about the need to use different hybrid and literary forms of content writing in literary journalism.
Students will be able to distinguish journalistic narration from literary literature in the form of a story, but they will also have the opportunity to understand that literary journalism is a humanized and aestheticized form of modern journalism that improves writing techniques in journalism by approaching literature.
