During the summer, I did an internship for a State-ownded paper called, "The Daily News". For the month, I worked there, I had gained many useful skills for beign a reporter as well as being an IB learner. While workign for the Daily news, I did many investigations on social aspects of Sri Lankan life, and had written articles for "The Gender Forum", "Teenage Trauma", "Political", "artscope" and "Opinions" pages for the newspaper.
Objectives i have achieved:
Undertaking New challenges
being a journalist is my life's goal however, i have never worked for a state-owned paper before. There were many new challenges such as, being intorduced into a working environment and organizing my time to the amount of assignments i have.
Global Awareness
During my voluntary work, i had to understand and be aware of Global issues to write an objective paper. i had to write articles on different news stories nation wide.
Examples of the online print will be posted below:
