Journalism
Journalism is a methodology and practice focused on gathering, assessing, creating, and presenting news and information to the public. It involves systematic research, fact-checking, ethical reporting, and storytelling across various media formats like print, digital, audio, and video. In a developer context, it emphasizes skills in communication, research, and content creation that can enhance technical documentation, user advocacy, and product storytelling.
Developers should learn journalism to improve their ability to write clear technical documentation, create engaging user stories, and communicate complex ideas effectively to non-technical stakeholders. It's particularly useful for roles involving developer advocacy, technical writing, or product management, where conveying information accurately and compellingly is crucial for user adoption and team collaboration.
