WRITE MY ESSAY

Students are expected to:
– outline their research topic – this must be something to do with journalism, ideally digital journalism.
– main questions – what are you trying to find out? A strong question includes these elements: the topic area; a key concept from the reading list; a
selected data type; a specific community; a specific aspect of journalism.
– explain key journalism studies concepts – use one or two concepts from within a required reading* – use short quotations to explain the concept to
demonstrate you have grasped it
– describe their selected research METHODS – are you using literature review? Content analysis? Source analysis? Framing? Bourdieu? Please use a
method you can understand. If you’re not sure about what method to use then choose literature review [SEE this UTS guide here:
https://www.uts.edu.au/current-students/support/helps/self-help-resources/types-assignments/literature-reviews]. If you’re doing a
content/source/frame analysis, then please take care NOT to take on too big a sample. Compare and contrast is your friend – compare two news
outlets, two nations, two time points, or representation of two different parts of society, etc.. Please do not try to analyse all the news on a topic –
pick key moments, look at two outlets at a particular day or even hour if there is masses of coverage of your topic. For literature reviews, be selective
– choose recent papers which are directly about or very close to your topic.
– Explain research ethics – Please view the FASS UG research ethics guide here: https://canvas.uts.edu.au/courses/33109/pages/research-integrity-
and-ethics-for-fass-coursework-students?module_item_id=1843779
– If your project does not involve other people it’s nil/negligible risk – use concepts from this guide to make a short statement about how you are
confident your project is ethical. If you’re involving other people please get your tutor’s OK before you survey or interview anyone AND make use of
the FASS guide. Even if you are not involving other people, you also need to consider your own comfort and safety. If your topic is sensitive please
check your topic and method with subject coordinator.
– Explain diversity principles – describe briefly how you have considered at least one kind of diversity in your project.
– Students should clearly explain how they are conducting an original journalism research project – be clear about what question you are asking, how
you chose it.
– Provide a justification for your project – Why did you choose this topic? What is its significance?
Please refer to required readings below.
I have attached my Assessment 1 which this assignment will build upon that research.
I have also attached Assignment 3 which this assignment is building on.
