Understanding print media

The purpose of the Media Education Seminar was to give students a critical understanding of the media and an ability to enable them to creatively use the media to spread positive stories.

To be good journalists, you have to know the elements of writing articles was the taken home message delivered to the students by Catholic Bishops Conference’s  Secretary for Communication, Fr Ambrose Pereira.

The basics of journalism, including the 5Ws and 1H rule (who, what, when, where, why and how) were taught and examples were used to portray the components of writing news articles.
