I’m teaching an online journalism class at Ohio University this quarter, and I asked the students to build a multimedia project.
I didn’t know what to expect, really. Most of them have little or no experience, and I just wanted them to experiment a little and see what they could do and what tools are available for building online news presentations.
For this assignment, I asked them to do a first person or personal piece and didn’t put a lot of restrictions on them. It could be as simple as a few blog posts or as complex as a video story. I was pretty impressed with the results. Click here to take a look at what they turned in.
