LANGUAGE OPINION EDITORIAL

In my public relations writing class we were asked to write an opinion editorial piece. I decided to write about why foreign language classes should no longer be required in a world where learning is changing rapidly.

I chose Education Week to be the intervening public for this article since their readers are the the decision makers in high schools. First, I created a strategy brief to determine important news values and messages. Then I wrote the article that could be pitched to Education Week.
