Research has shown that writing is a process--writers gather information, organize, draft, revise and publish their work. Kenneth Rosenauer has adapted this research to create Storycrafting: A Process Approach to Writing News, a fully developed, process-oriented news writing textbook that provides students effective tolls to grapple with the complex task of writing.

Produktbeschreibung
Research has shown that writing is a process--writers gather information, organize, draft, revise and publish their work. Kenneth Rosenauer has adapted this research to create Storycrafting: A Process Approach to Writing News, a fully developed, process-oriented news writing textbook that provides students effective tolls to grapple with the complex task of writing. In the first five chapters, Rosenauer establishes the foundation for using "process approach" to teach news writing. Once the foundation is in place, closely related aspects of process follow: ownership, audience, peer review, and coaching. Beginning with chapter six, students discover additional in-depth resources to hone their news writing knowledge and skills, all presented through the filter of the process approach. The final three chapters of the book focus on journalistic conduct, legal and ethical issues, and current trends in journalism. Throughout, the text makes liberal use of writing examples from award-winning college and university newspapers, allowing readers to see how their peers successfully handled similar writing tasks. In addition, each chapter includes For Practice and Crafting and Drafting sections--storywriting opportunities. The accompanying Instructor's Resource Manual (available free on the Web) describes the theoretical underpinnings of process methodology and makes this book an effective and exciting component of the classroom experience. Storycrafting is based on the notion that all good writing is, in a sense, good storytelling. By focusing on the "how" instead of the "what" of news writing activity--the process rather than the product--Storycrafting shows student journalists how to proficiently craft compelling and meaningful news stories.
