To commemorate the first National News Engagement Day on Tuesday, the staff of The Pearl Post is providing a sneak peek at what they do in the classroom. Students brainstormed for their next issue. Editors posted stories to the news website. New Media Editors captured footage and edited news videos.

Other students also participated in engaging in the news on Tuesday. Teachers were encouraged to show The Pearl Morning News, produced by video production students, during Breakfast in the Classroom. Journalism 1 students had a scavenger hunt as they flipped through the local newspaper and its online website to familiarize themselves with all the parts of a large metropolitan newspaper.
