Play your part in the modern journalism space with competitive knowledge of digital and multimedia tools.
Summary:
According to Owen’s (2017) The State of Technology in Global Newsrooms survey, which reached over 2,200 newsroom employees from 130 countries including Sub-Saharan Africa, media are embracing digital skills.
This means almost any current journalism and media job requires some digital or online knowledge and skills, be it social media, online writing, social media analytics, content creation or multimedia storytelling. In most newsrooms, journalists are expected to be multifaceted professionals.
It is imperative for today’s journalists to understand the basics of journalism in the current digital space. This course will, therefore, introduce students to the concepts of digital and multimedia journalism.
