You have finished the third and final module of the Global
News VILLAGE.
In this module we have introduced you to some strategies for
understanding the perspective from which a particular news article
is written. We have suggested you may want to consider:
- What country a news article came from, and what audience
was being addressed
- How the political situation in a country can affect the
news
- How the economics of the media can affect the news
- How examining the sources cited within a news article can
help you understand the perspective it reflects.
These are only a few of the strategies you can use—maybe
you’ve thought of others.
We hope we have provided you with some important skills that
will make it easier for you to incorporate the perspectives
of people from a wide range of geographic locations, experiences,
and cultures into your understanding of current events.
