The following is a syllabus for the Largemouth Citizen Journalism workshop, a six-week citizen journalism training program. The course teaches the essential journalism skills needed to write stories for newspapers, newsletters, magazines, and the Internet in a way that focuses public attention on important social issues. The course is taught once each spring and fall at the Resource Center of the Americas, a human rights nonprofit in Minneapolis, MN.
