Today's class was on the 'beat' that a reporter has to follow. The class was handled by Vincent D' Souza.
A beat is a regular, continuous and focussed coverage of a particular field. The police beat, the education beat, the sport beat, the arts beat, etc.
He explained how on a 'beat' we keep an eye on all that happens in the field we cover, how we can make new and more contacts and get story ideas. Finally, we looked at the map of our area we had created two weeks ago and talked about how we could cover it like a 'beat'
