Text analysis outline essay 2 25 june 2012
This document is an addendum to an outline for a paper analyzing media piracy laws. It summarizes three body paragraphs that will support the thesis that media piracy laws have not fundamentally changed even as technology advances, and that duplicating or selling someone's media without permission has always been illegal. The paragraphs will discuss how digital technology has made media sharing easy but artists' rights still need protection, how the internet makes all media readily available without thought of ownership, and examples throughout history of people avoiding copyright payments.

Students' freedom of speech rights in public schools have evolved over time through key court cases. Tinker v. Des Moines established students' rights to political protest, while Morse v. Frederick showed those rights are not unlimited. Recent cases like R.O. v. Ithaca and Bell v. Itawamba examined whether schools can regulate off-campus online speech. Legal scholars debate how far schools can regulate students' social media use both on and off campus under the First Amendment.

- Journalism uses shorter sentences, simpler words, and shorter paragraphs compared to more complex English class writing. Journalism also relies more on primary sources like interviews, while English essays draw from assigned readings.
- Organization differs as well, with journalism using the inverted pyramid structure and English essays typically being five paragraphs. However, both must follow attribution guidelines to avoid plag

Prayer In Public Schools
This document discusses the ongoing debate around prayer in public schools and whether it violates the First Amendment. It provides background on key court cases such as Engel v. Vitale in 1962 that examined prayer in schools. While religion is governed by the First Amendment, courts have ruled schools must remain neutral toward religion. As a result, treatment of prayer differs between public and private schools. How student-initiated prayer and its presence at school sports events is handled also affects students, teachers, and parents. The future direction remains unclear as the Supreme Court occasionally hears new cases on the issue but often refuses to make further rulings.

This document discusses how media coverage of the 1970 Kent State shootings, where the National Guard fired on student protesters killing four, might be different if the event occurred today in the age of digital and social media. It provides examples of the television, newspaper, radio, and photo coverage from 1970 which was limited and lacked real-time reporting.

It proposes an assignment for students to explore these differences and imagine how different outlets would cover such an event now.

Jlsm vsengclasswritingf15
This document discusses the key differences between writing for an English class versus writing for media. It notes that English class writing typically has a single teacher as the audience, aims to impress them, and uses longer paragraphs and more complex sentences and words. In contrast, media writing has a broader audience to inform, often within a short timeframe, using short, simple sentences and paragraphs with one to two sentences. Additionally, media writing relies more on primary sources and follows conventions like attribution and news values, while English class writing can utilize different citation styles and incorporate personal experience. Ultimately, both types of writing share core elements like brainstorming, drafting, and revising, but the audience and purpose differ between academic and journalistic formats.

Editor's Notes
- Law and ethics standards are the foundation upon which all scholastic journalism programs are built. Therefore, the Commission has determined that passing the law and ethics questions is essential. Candidates must score 75 percent or higher on the law and ethics questions—in both multiple choice and short answer sections—to pass. Your cumulative score must also be 75 percent or higher to earn Certification. If you don’t pass the law and ethics part but score well on everything else, you may take an alternate version of the law and ethics questions within one year for a small administrative fee. You will not have to retake the other parts of the test if you earned a 75 percent or higher in those areas.
- These are the important court cases. What’s most important is what they mean to today’s journalism educators.
- Although there are 9 areas of unprotected speech, these five are the most troublesome for those in scholastic journalism.
