Choose one or two situation(s) and/or “groups” to address. This assignment must be in essay format. Your essay should be a minimum of 1,000 words.

Wiregrassstudentradio.com is a Troy University official student-run on-line radio station. It “broadcasts” from noon until midnight weekdays (central time). It needs to raise about $200 a month to meet its expenses, license fees, etc. This puts it in competition for advertising dollars with every other media outlet in Pike County, including the Troy Messenger, Troy Cablevision Channel 52, and WTBF-AM (1947) and WTBF-FM (1997), the only commercial stations in Pike County.

WTBF-AM is a “local” station, playing primarily to the Troy population of approx. 15,000 and to a lesser extent, Pike County, with about the same number or residents.

WTBF-FM is an “oldies” station, with older demographics (35-65), and is more local than most but also carries news and information to appeal to the entire Wiregrass, which their signal covers well.

Troy Messenger is the only local newspaper, and it is published five days a week. They skip Monday and Sunday.

Group One is managing wiregrassstudentradio.com. What do we play in order to attract our core audience, how much are commercials, and what can we do to promote it?

Group Two gets to be the new owners of WTBF-AM/FM. How do we maintain the current level of service and profit against this new upstart? What do we play and why? How do we promote? What do we charge?

Group Three gets to be the new owners of the Troy Messenger.

Group Four gets to start a new TV station in Pike County.

You will be a part of any group (you choose). And you can choose up to two situations (groups) to address. You can also just address one—that’s entirely up to you.

Instructions

For this task, acknowledging the diversity of students today, identify one particular challenge that interests you as it relates to today’s students in PK-12 classrooms. Your reading from Chapter 1 discusses several types of students from cultural differences, learning styles, disabilities, and whether or not English is their first language. Keep these in mind for your paper this week.

Your assignment is to write a paper in which you analyze one of the three major learning theories: constructivism, behaviorism, or cognitivism. Then, explore why learning theory is at the core of effective models of teaching. Include the following in your paper:

1. Offer an overview using a chart or narrative format of your chosen theory. The overview should include the definition and general implications of the theory;
2. Identify at least one prominent theorist associated with your chosen theory and describe the contributions of that theorist;
3. Explain how that theory is relevant or important in education and offer at least two examples of teaching approaches associated with your chosen theory.
4. Identify a particular area of student diversity (e.g., English Language Learners, gifted and talented, special education, disabilities, homeless) and then analyze the implications of the theory for a certain teaching practice as it relates to the type of student diversity you identified.

Length: 3-4 pages, not including title and reference pages

References: Include a minimum of 2 scholarly resources. In addition to these specified resources, other appropriate scholarly resources, including seminal articles, may be included. You may find it helpful to visit the Curriculum and Teaching LibGuide.

You are to turn in two typed radio news stories. One must be a reader story and one must be a wrap. Each story is worth 25 points. You are to find two separate newspaper articles from a current issue of the Tropolitan, the Troy Messenger, the Montgomery Advertiser, or the Dothan Eagle, and re-write those for broadcast.

Upload your assignment here as either a Word document or a PDF. Your news stories must be double-spaced and typed in all capital letters.

You must write your stories in proper radio style, as we have discussed in this class. Put the title at the top of each story (example: Restaurant Fire.) Your lead sentences must be written in present, present-perfect, or future tense. Points will automatically be counted off for writing your lead sentences in past tense. In addition, your story must answer the Who, What, When, Where, Why questions. You must introduce the quote before the actuality and have a tag in your story after the actuality. Do not write, “Had this to say.” For example:
