The Role of Newspaper in Enhancing Education

Prof. Bhaskar Hegde, Dr. Hampesh K S

Abstract :

 �¡e newspaper, today, plays a vital role in human affairs. Its importance has not been diminished by the appearance of the radio or the television. Men no longer have travel to get information. �¡e newspaper has become the main source of information about local national, and foreign affairs. �¡ough the radio and television convey important news and messages quicker than the newspaper, they seldom give the details of an incident. �¡e newspaper, on the other hand, gives not only more detail about a particular incident but it also contains more new items. �¡is is greatly important today when political changes occur with rapidity unknown before. Besides, the newspaper is easier to carry and it could be read at any time during the day. Further, the permanence of the printed word helps one to refresh one�s memory of certain facts and incidents reported in the past. �¡is article will provide a comprehensive rationale for using newspapers as an effective teaching and learning tool in the college classroom as well as a set of reasons why media literacy is particularly needed now, at the dawn of a new millennium
