High school students learn about digital media
View
the Summer Journalism Visitation Program from previous years:
|
A record number of high school students came together to attend the tenth Summer Journalism Visitation Program at the University of Florida. The theme for this one-day event was “Digital Media: The Future of News and Entertainment Reporting.”
The opening general session generated lively discussion among students, parents and professionals on topics such as a communications industry undergoing change, new digital challenges, blogging and legal pitfalls to watch out for. The panel included Bill Maxwell, St. Petersburg Times editorial board; Tim Davis, The Gainesville Sun new media manager; Tom Coleman, Star-Banner online director; and Amy Sanders, University of Florida College of Journalism and Communication doctoral student.
Workshop sessions included Photojournalism Reporting led by Kat Fowler, University of Florida School of Art and Art History graduate student and Jannet Walsh, Star-Banner staff reporter; Newspaper Reporting led Donna Winchester, St. Petersburg Times education reporter; and Television Broadcast led by Dave Schermer, WUFT-TV assignment manager.
The highlight of the closing general session was the presentation of group projects developed during the workshops. Other activities included a workshop on college financial aid and admissions for parents and a tour of the College of Journalism and Communications.
