Research notes: A completely arbitrary list of takeaways from two unconferences →
Students are told from even before they walk on campus that being a journalist means Being a Good Writer, Being a Good Editor, Being a Good Photographer. No one is telling them they could be an application developer, or a data journalist, or a media entrepreneur. Or if they have heard it, that voice is getting drown out by traditionalists. A disturbing amount of time, the traditionalists drowning those students out are other students.
A thousand times yes. Excellent thoughts on how to cultivate the next generation of journalists from Matt Waite.
