DEADLINE: Missouri School of Journalism Summer Workshops

Are you a high school student interested in expanding your journalism skills and learning from top journalism educators and professionals? The Missouri School of Journalism in Columbia invites you to join us this summer for an exciting in-person, on campus, experience.

During the workshop, you will learn from the School of Journalism faculty and leading journalism professionals on how to improve your writing, interviewing and storytelling skills. The workshop will also cover techniques for audio, podcasting and video along with learning the tools for being a good investigative reporter.

Students will be immersed in learning The Missouri Method of journalism, hands-on learning by doing. Sessions will include exercises for writing and interviewing, plus opportunities for coaching. Bring story ideas you want to develop for next school year, samples of work you want to enhance, or just come and learn as much as you can to make you a better journalist.

Original reporting experience will give students real newsroom skills and allow for more creative work. The workshop will also focus on reporting accuracy and covering diverse communities that are often left out of the news coverage.
