Instructor’s Manual for Hilliard’s Writing for Television, Radio, and New Media, Eleventh Edition”

Preface:

The Purpose of the Instructor’s Manual:

The design of the Instructor’s Manual is based upon “Problem Based Learning” (PBL) [1] criteria and is the binding element for curriculum structure, for the writing examples and the presentation expectations students present in a classroom learning context. Writing students make materials for presentation and must experience the presentation of their materials in order to complete their own developmental journey for their work.  A successful writing and presentation sequence means meeting 80% of the above criteria in the design, presentation and evaluation of the scriptwriting/experience. This Instructor’s Manual is designed to help the teacher and student connect the writing and presentation experience to the writing expectation for media in a modern age.

Why an Instructor’s Manual:

This Instructor’s Manual is not a workbook.  The materials presented are designed to facilitate:

• Writing to format. The research stage of writing must include a review of format expectations for the varied and emerging distribution formats. Students must practice checking and then responding to traditional as well as emerging (digital) media writing format requirements.
• Writing exercises to engage aspiring media writers.
  • Remember to have students role-play as announcers, producers, directors and varied audiences as they present their media writing proposals and scripts or as they evaluate the writing of peers.
  • Writing for situation and action means paying attention to how the writing sounds as well as how it provides motion. Always; content is King.
• Opportunity to present writing outcomes.

The Instructor’s Manual is designed to present the aspiring writer and the teacher with scriptwriting experiences specifically designed to facilitate media writing. Students will invent story approaches and solve storytelling problems for clients while writing to format. Students will express their functional writing aptitude as they present their work to peers, clients and teachers.

Instructor’s Manual Organization:

The exercises, tips and examples that follow are connected to the text on a chapter-by-chapter basis. The content will focus upon the concepts and skills of the chapter and where necessary incorporate skills and concepts from earlier chapters. The content is presented as “Scriptwriting/Experience.”

According to the Autodesk foundation, “PBL is at the heart of good instruction because it brings together intellectual inquiry, rigorous real-world standards, and student engagement in relevant and meaningful work.”
