J & C Magnet Research Paper

We are encouraged to be creative and hone our skills in an area of interest through these programs in STEM. Similar to having a major in college, students at a magnet school have a specialized area that they can take classes in, along with the basic academic courses. The senior internships allow for a deeper, hands-on, understanding of a topic that we are deciding to dedicate our lives to. Wheeler’s courses are well designed to challenge and guide students, allowing them to excel in the future. Students who are in this program are encouraged to regard events from many points of view and be more open minded, advancing us in life by interactions and communications.

Taylor Sampson interviewed Jay Welsh, current Florida Virtual School instructor in Journalism and seasoned broadcast journalist to talk to him about the career of journalism. When asked what would all aspiring journalists study and do before entering the profession he states “Number one is a great writing education. Very little is done without a script, and you are responsible for writing that script.” He also says to follow your passion “There is all types of different fields (for journalism careers). Mine was sports. For others it might be politics, fashion, wild life.” He even says every aspect of life has a journalist path. “The last thing would have to be comfortable speaking. You’re going to be in front of people. It can be a bit egotistical if you like being the center of attention; because that’s what you are.”

High school is an important time for developing a sense of who you are as a person. Each kid who starts out high school will usually asks themselves what they are there to accomplish. For the most part, many set personal goals for themselves and strive to achieve above and beyond. However, some are just there for the experience and to see where it takes them. It’s apparent that some kids have an easier time and don’t have to struggle with their high school career. For example, some of the students have followed strong academic paths that have prepared them for this time in their lives, where as others have struggled with educational influences and feel unprepared or lost. Swerdlow mentions that the students, who attend J.E.B. Stuart, are given many chances to improve their educational foundation in order to

As I got into middle school, I found my passion for journalism. I saw how closely my father would follow the news, specifically issues in the Middle East, the land he had once lived in and eventually fled due to conflict and poverty. My father’s love for journalism inspired me to want to follow the news as well. As a result, every Sunday I would bike to my friend’s house and he would hand me the Detroit Free Press after his father completed his morning reading. I was always thrilled to open up the somewhat crumpled and out of order newspaper to see what was going on in my community and around the globe. Once I became a freshman in high school, I was headstrong that journalism would be my future career path. I knew it was an industry that was suffering greatly and I knew journalists did not get paid well; but it did not diminish my eagerness to enter the field, I was still persistent on accomplishing my goals and entering the world of

Radio broadcasting is a part of the disclosure community and a major you can study specifically. Radio broadcasting is a wireless transmission over radio waves intended to reach an audience, and communicate to people around the world. Broadcasting around the world gives students the chance to explore in things they have never explored in such as; learning how to work the computer on-air systems, broadcast consoles, and digital recorders. Majoring in radio broadcasting you also have to learn how to speak through the microphone and use varieties of tones while communicating to the outside world. Learning how to work

I have taken and loved a variety of my media classes here at Ball State University. I have taken courses in video production, audio production, news production, copywriting, scriptwriting, newswriting, interviewing, reporting, photography, graphic design, media analysis, and media law. I have really enjoyed getting familiar with all of the different journalism, telecommunications, and news departments at Ball State University, and have aspects of each program that I enjoy. Although many of my classes have been very challenging and time-consuming, I am not discouraged. Instead, I feel as though I am more excited graduate, get my degree in Telecommunications with a Concentration in News Production, and start a career in the industry. Even though some of my required courses have been for print media, I have enjoyed my courses for broadcast media more. I feel like there are aspects of video and audio media that can’t be told in writing, and that is why I am working to get into

I’ve begun pursuing journalism because I truly believe that covering the nitty gritty aspects of society have positive effects.

“Tesla was considered a god among men; his efforts in scientific discovery have even influenced some of today’s brightest minds” (Vladimir Pištalo). Nikola Tesla was born on July 10, 1856 in the village of Smiljan, Austrian Empire (Croatia) to an intelligent mother, an Orthodox priest for a father, and four other siblings. Attended engineering and technology schools all the way up until his college years; after graduation in 1873 Tesla spent about a decade, moving around from village to village enrolling in different colleges, working for various corporations and trying to avoid being drafted into the army. He would eventually move to the United States in June 1884, during the “Machine Age” (1880-1945), in order to pursue

The only engineer that fascinates me is Nikola Tesla; he was a physicist, inventor, electrical engineer, mechanical engineer, and futurist. He had many creative ideas that had really change the world, but he had many more inventions that could had an impact towards society. There were some ideas he had created; for example, alternating current, harnessing and distributing light, and many more. His thoughts towards distributing and harnessing light was the lead creation of the Tesla Coil; in addition, an article, Nikola Tesla Inventions that Changed the World described how “Nikola used the idea of the Earth being as a magnet that can generate electricity or electromagnetism utilizing frequencies as a transmitter.” Also, from the same article,

Depending on the government to solve your home problem is not ideal, depending on anyone at all would be a disaster. The only one you must trust completely and should depend on would be you. Within the mind of ours is a fluid that sustain every determined individual, and that fluid is idea. As easy as it comes so shall it lapse away from a busy mind but idle body, and it may never return.

In 1894 Tesla photographed a famous American writer in one of pictures. Tesla did math and physics at the Technical Edison’s of Graz and philosophy at the University of Prague. In 1882, Tesla was walking one day and he thought of an idea for a brushless AC motor.

Keeping an invested interest and awareness of what the media is currently focused on is important. I would tailor my approach and program around what is currently trending in the media in order to relate to the public and gain

Two years and an Associate’s degree later, I transferred to Phillip Merrill College of Journalism (University of Maryland College Park) to study broadcasting. There, I learned the tricks of the journalism trade; how to shoot,
