STOP THE PRESS!!

All ESO Year 3 students have made a little project designing the front cover of an imaginary newspaper (Corrales News). They have become news reporters, photographers, designers... for a short time and the results are displayed on a big window so we all can see their work. Here is an old presentation with a summary of the evolution which newspapers have undergone since their beginning until the digital era. How long will they stay around? Who knows??
