| You are the person who is responsible for
seeing that all work is completed in this task. You must be able
to work well with the rest of your "staff" in order to be
successful. Your responsibilities include, but are not limited to:
|
| 1. You will be writing and creating
stories along with the rest of your staff, but you must be able to see
the "bigger picture." What will your newspaper look
like? What will be your color scheme? Which pictures will
you use to compliment your newspaper? These are the types of
questions you have to pose to yourself and to your staff. While
you should try to come to a group consensus, remember that you are there
to guide. You also have to make sure that the ads and articles all
have a similar "voice" and fit with the time period we are
studying.
|
| 2. Assist the staff with deciding
who will be responsible for what articles/ads, etc. A story list
will be due to Mrs. McIntosh after our first day in the lab. You,
and you alone, are responsible for completing this list and making sure
that it is accurate.
|
| 3. Proofread everything that will be
put into the final product after both the research editor and the layout
editor have proofed the text. |
