Learning How to Make Maps

During my second semester at San Francisco State University I have taken my next class in order for me to complete my core for my journalism classes. I am enrolled in Digital News Gathering, JOUR 226.

In this class I am learning about social media sites and how to use them to my advantage. We have posted articles on Facebook and Twitter. Its been amazing learning how to use these sites and recieving feedback from other journalists.

We learned how to create maps for stories using Google Maps. This help the reader see a visual of what's going on in the story; I was actually surprised that not all stories have these maps because they help so much.
