A Matter of Facts : The News Value and Elements March, 17th 2022 10.15 am Student Activity Workbook Introduction To Journalism-pdf Proximity Noun Closeness

Kedekatan Proximity: This has to do with location. If the event is happening close by, it will impact your readers more than if it is happening across town, or across the world, all other considerations being equal. A dance at your school, for instance, is more newsworthy than a dance at another school.

My Learning strategies

First, I look for material related to the topic. Second, I took a screenshot, then saved it in a place full of my data so that it was easy to find, and finally I understood/read the material I had saved.

Reflection

(Your feelings: What you will do differently next time)

Interpretation

For me, the most useful experience was knowing about news values and elements. I have developed my understanding of value and elements of news. Having discussed about the value and elements of news I now realise what makes news different from other forms of writing. This knowledge is essential to me in the workplace because I have to know the things to pay attention to when later I am required to write news. Because I have not yet confident with writing news yet I will now need to get into the habit of writing news stories of any kind. Previously, I did not notice to the things in the news such as value and news elements. Alternatively, this might be related to the knowledge that I didn’t have before. This is similar to when I felt really lazy to learn more because I felt like I didn’t need to learning about that. Like news things this reveals that there are things that can be newsworthy.
