What is Novo Papiri?




Hi there! Welcome to this website and newspaper, a place where your opinion matters. I am the students of a foreign language from ninth semester and my idea is to create a digital newspaper with two purposes: inform and learn with it; for this reason, apart from just give you information about general facts, we want to make you part of it learning. Through this project, we are going to develop several activities based on the use of the newspaper; we are going to share opinions, stimulate our critical thinking, and learn a lot of English.  

Newspapers have always been one of the most powerful means of communication between people and today’s world; they exist because of the people’s desire of communication and the necessity of informing and being informed; evidently newspapers allow people to be more conscious and critical about the facts that happen every day in our region, country, our world and so on. According to Gonzalo (2020) a journalist and scholar in Humanistic Studies, in a world full of truths, writing and consequently, the newspapers impact and create a record of everything that happens, they provide certainty about facts in time avoiding the information to be distorted when people report. Moreover, the printed word makes facts to be recorded in time, as well as it prevents the misinformation in cities.
