Copyreading &
Headline Writing
Every great article needs a great editor. This free course for Filipino students in Grades 4–6 teaches you the skills of copyreading and headline writing — catching errors, applying style rules, and crafting headlines that make every story shine before it reaches the reader.
Copyreading is the last line of defense before a story goes to print. A skilled copyreader catches grammar mistakes, checks for errors, applies style rules, and gives printer's directions — making sure every article that reaches a reader is as accurate and polished as possible. And paired with that skill is headline writing: the art of capturing a story in just a few carefully chosen words.
This free online journalism course for Filipino Grade 4, 5, and 6 students teaches you copyreading and headline writing step by step — from understanding copyreading symbols and AP style basics, to mastering grammar, printer's directions, and writing headlines from the fundamentals all the way to advanced techniques. By Chapter 10, you'll be ready to take on a full mock copyreading and headline writing exercise. 🎉
