Journalism Education Resources

Poynter helps student journalists, college media advisers and journalism educators shape the future of media.

Language Primer

One of Poynter’s all-time most popular courses, the Language Primer has been fully updated and revised for 2023. It has helped thousands and thousands of writers gain proficiency in the fundamentals of grammar, punctuation and word use in the English language....
