Paper 3: Project 3: Investigative Research Article for a Real-World Publication
For this portion of the investigative research project, you will submit a draft and a final copy to
me. The first required draft of your article must include thoroughly developed content and
design features appropriate for your target real-world publication. The second required copy of
your article must address the suggestions you received from me on the previous draft,
anticipating the audienceàexpectations for an article appearing in your target publication.
In short, this is where you fulfill the proposal from Paper 2:
You must create an article that looks like a regular article from your chosen publication
source: If you chose the New York Times, match the design and font, the tone and photography
used, make sure the author is listed in the same spot they do. Add links/sources in the way they do
as well (if you struggle with this, just change the color, you don have to learn how to do hyperlinks;
this is not a tech class). You don have to use all of your research from Paper 2, but you absolutely
can. Your article CANNOT be a direct copy of an article that already exists on the publicationÊwebsite.
Things to look for and mimic:
Tone, voice, construction of articles (do they use T or not? Etc).
Use of photos, where the date and time appear, where the authoràname appears. In other
words, the visual construction of the page.
How they create titles, are they creative or straight forward?
Number of paragraphs, how long are their articles usually?
How do they insert research? With hyperlinks? With direct citations?
You will WRITE an original article on the topic you chose and then make it look like itàbeen
published on the website you chose. If you have questions, get in touch!
