Introduction

The objective of this training is to raise local journalists’ awareness of the potential of the web both as a source and as a tool to spread information, and of the peculiarities of writing on the web. A debate on the new ethical issues that come with web-journalism is also planned.

Multimedia

Journalists are trained to sound recording, sound editing, photo and photo retouching on common software tools. With these skills, journalists are also shown how to produce an audio slideshow for their web reports.

Practice

Training comprises a great deal of practical exercises, aimed at the production of reports from A to Z : field reporting and investigation (notes writing, sound and photo recording), multimedia editing, upload on the web site and spreading/promotion on social networks.
