Week 1 Complete
Careers in Media Writing. From this week’s readings and
searching the Internet, create a list of possible careers in the
field of media writing and discuss the different technologies
that are used in those careers. Include at least one online

2. outside source, preferably not one that has already been
used in a fellow student’s posting.
Tools in Media Writing. Select one of the careers from the list
you created for the previous discussion forum and discuss
the variety of tools that are used in that job for content
creation, editing and proofreading.
Week 2 Complete
Communication Documents. Why is it important to
thoroughly research the information that will go in a
communication document prior to laying out the document?
Identifying Audience. Why is identifying audience important
in the writing and editing processes? At what point should
you identify your audience in these processes? Provide
examples of when you recently wrote for two different
audiences. What influence did your audience have on your
writing?
Audience Awareness Activity. Choose three pieces of media
communication targeted to three different audiences. Use
Web sites, online brochures, online promotional pieces,
online newspaper articles, and other media that are available
online. For each media communication, write a 100-word
paragraph that identifies the targeted audience of the
communication. Examine the elements, both written and
visual, incorporated into the communication for its particular
audience. Explain whether or not these elements are
effective in targeting its audience, and whether you believe
the writer of the communication had a clear sense of who
the audience is. Include the URL for each media
communication.
Cite your resources in text and on the reference page. For
information regarding APA samples and tutorials, visit the

3. Ashford Writing Center, within the Learning Resources tab on
the left navigation toolbar, in your online course
Week 3 Complete
Event Information. Research information about an upcoming
event of your choice. Discuss at least three different forms of
media that the target audience might use to find more
information about the event.
Reaching your Target Audience. Why is it important to use
multiple forms of communication when trying to reach a
target audience? What would be the risks of only using one
form of media communication?
Final Project Prep. In preparation for your final project, begin
researching magazines—in print or online—that interest you.
Select 1-2 feature stories that would be good models for your
final project. You may choose to write a Feature Story that
will add to what has already been written, or you may be
inspired to write on a different topic. Write a proposal (1-2
pages) that includes what you think is known about the topic,
what you think may be new, how you will research it
(electronic resources, interview key subjects, etc.), who your
audience is, and what your writing style, tone, etc. will be.
Include a list of sources you may need to write your Feature
Story and provide a brief summary for each source. (1 page).
Week 4 Complete
Using Media Writing Tools. From this week’s readings and
searching the Internet, create a list tools that are used in the
field of media writing. Include at least one online outside
source, preferably not one that has already been used in a
fellow student’s posting. Explain which of the tools on their
list you have already used and which of them you would be
comfortable with trying and why.

4. Editing for Different Media. How does the medium in which
you are communicating your message influence your writing
and editing styles? To illustrate your points, provide
examples of how writing and editing for one medium might
differ or be similar to another medium.
Editing Activity. Edit the copy below, targeted for a local
community newspaper. Proofread the copy carefully for
grammar and writing mechanics discussed in Appendices A, B
and C. You may also refer to your Ashford-approved style
guide and the resources found at the Ashford Writing Center.
Remember that you cannot change direct quotes. Revise the
article per above, and divide it into six to eight paragraphs.
Week 5 Complete
Font Types. Discuss why it is important to use more than one
type of font in layout design? Consider and cite an example
of a piece of media that uses font types effectively; explain
why it is effective. On the other hand, what are the dangers
of using too many fonts in one layout design? Consider and
cite an example of a piece of media that uses font types
ineffectively; explain why it is ineffective.
Graphics. Why are graphics important to layout design? How
do use of graphics change across media? What factors or
strategies inform the use of graphics? Consider purpose and
audience. (For example, use of graphics in a business
presentation or document vs. use of graphics in
advertisements during a major sporting event?).
Focus of the Final Project
Students will write a Feature Story (800-1,000 words) on a
topic and for a magazine of their choice. This project requires
students to incorporate the major concepts discussed during
the course, such as applying various media communication

5. tools, identifying audience, gathering information and
research, and understanding the editing process. The Feature
Story should demonstrate a student’s comprehension of the
readings and class discussions as well as the implications of
new knowledge in the field of media writing and editing.
In order to study successfully, the environment can have a
big impact. You should go out to study; your room might not
be the best place for it. Find a quiet area, like the library, to
do your work. You should opt for the library. If you do not
have any other choice, buy some noise-canceling
headphones....
