Task 3

Expert interview

Imagine you're a reporter for the technology and media section of a newspaper. You've heard about some of the crazy challenges that are popular on Social Media and want to write an article about one of them. You don't have much time to hand in your article, so you decide to find an expert who can give you all the important facts about one of these challenges.

Find an expert from another group and interview him/her on the challenge he/she researched.
Afterwards, swap roles and you get to be the expert and your partner the interviewer.

Before starting the interview, think about the questions you want to ask your partner (about 7 to 9 questions each).  Then, record your interviews with the audio recorder app on your smartphone.

Assignment

Newspaper Article

After having done the interview, you now have all the important information you need. Use the recording of the interview and write your article for the newspaper.
Write about 200-250 words.

To make your text look like a real newspaper article, go to the following website: https://newspaper.jaguarpaw.co.uk/.

Give your newspaper a name, add a headline and a picture (make sure to use free pictures!). Then just type in your article text and you're done.

After you've downloaded your article, don't forget to upload it to our forum on our learning platform. You should also include a link to a clip of the challenge you reported on, so that we can watch it and see what it looks like in action.

Remember: Include as many interesting facts as possible to make it entertaining for your readers!
