Lesson topic: Canadian journalism. At the beginning of the lesson, in order to attract the attention of students and awaken desire for the lecture, easy questions related to the country of Canada were used. Extensive information was presented about the history of Canadian journalism, print media, and the television industry. The characteristics and similarities of Canadian and American journalism were recorded using a Venn diagram to help students remember and think creatively about the information they were reporting. Then, in order to increase creativity, the students were divided into 2 groups and were given instructions to record on video any news that happened in the United States and Canada.
