The Web Office has developed a UWA Newsroom to promote the the University's research, activities, events, staff and students.
The Newsroom has a front page which allows major stories to be featured in a carousel with high-quality images.
All areas of UWA which have their own newsrooms are linked from the front page under News from around the University
If you have a story you feel is worthy of being on the front page you should contact Public Affairs, which manages the front page.
Publishing a news item
Creating, editing and publishing news items is a straightforward process.
A clean writing style will help you create a story that people will want to read.
Remember you are creating a news item. The content should include the answers to:
- Who?
- What?
- When?
- Where?
- Why?
- How?
Introduction
Keep the first paragraph short and straight to the point. Provide enough information in the introduction to make the reader want to continue. The first paragraph is usually the one which is used on front pages.
Try to source a high-quality image to use. Such an image can boost the article's chances of appearing on the Newsroom front page and makes the story more attractive to readers.
