Journalism
Even though the presence of such a subject might seem unusual, MTIS is one of the few schools in the country which offers journalism classes. Journalism is very much enjoyed by students as well as parents. There are a lot of factors which make it so popular:
• journalism is a form of communication extremely important in today’s world (after all, it's one of the four government power branches);
• it is readily available in written, visual, as well as audio form;
• it easily makes its way through all the segments and branches of society.
Journalism is a discipline stagnant by nature, with its own rules, through which we promote the basic values of good student training, and a much easier transition to the different obstacles life and society throws their way.
Our classes are very relaxing due to the ease with which the students learn to communicate. It's hard to imagine that this course won’t stir the imagination of our "little journalists" since it aims at everybody's interests. We have many diverse journalism subjects, such as: fashion, sports, theater, jokes, arts, games, and sometimes even politics. We correct the possible mistakes in oral and written communication and we try to develop a more elevated way of speaking.
It is important, for the development of the child, that the student knows how s/he got to obtain such results. During these classes, the students are offered the possibility to learn - as much as age permits - the techniques used to obtain information and the way in which it is promoted. This helps students communicate easier, it develops their perception capacity, their understanding and ability to communicate the information obtained in their environment, and, why not, it teaches them what it means to assume responsibility for their actions.
Our main goal also materializes in the work being put into the school newspaper, since we want it to be as professional as possible, and to reach the standards which are expected from a school such as MTIS.
