My goals for JN 217

I hope to be able to improve my paragraph structuring skills in this course:  This has probably improved the most.  I believe as far as AP style paragraph structure is concerned, I have become significantly better.  My profile for example has a plethora of different sizes of paragraphs, but all are generally short.



Also I hope to improve my esteem when it comes to being able to approach people and question/interview them:  Seeing the fact that in all of my articles I have at least one live source shows that I have worked on this.  In journalism, this is my weakness, but I am slowly getting better.  My first article may have been the hardest since I went up to people who I have never met and interviewed them.



Lastly I would love to be able to get a ton of contacts in be able to have the skill of asking people for their contact info:  I have not gained as many contacts as I wanted, nor become much better at contact information.  I have gathered contact information from two or three of my interviewees.  As for contacts, I have gained a few, and met new people, but I did not live up to my goal.  It did take guts to become acquainted with Luke from the profile, Marcene from the column, and Holly from the feature, but I did it!
