This document discusses strategic directions for journalism education. It presents four models: the Teaching Hospital Model, where students produce original news reporting under the guidance of professionals; the Entrepreneurial Model, shifting from institutional to social networks and routines to reflexivity; the Community Innovation Model, bringing together different types of journalism, technology, subjects and functions to engage local communities; and choosing a model based on factors like faculty skills, resources, funding opportunities, community needs and media landscape.

Hinweis der Redaktion
- Like individuals, journalism programs that develop expertise in particular areas can build a brand and reputation, attracting motivated students, competent faculties, and committed partners. The range of choices for journalism programs used to be much more narrow. In examining journalism programs in the US, I have been struck by the similarities of their course offerings and curriculum. As programs continue to change, however, they have begun to diversify. Now programs can focus on teaching students to be storytellers in multiple media or data analysts with visualization skills; they can focus on developing social media expertise and community managers or experts in video, audio, photography and the written word; subject area specialists and experts in particular media channels or investigative journalists or watchdog specialists.
- News21 was first launched in 2005 by three American foundations as part of a $20 million grant. Since 2008, Arizona State University has received more than $10 million to fund the program, which provides an intensive spring seminar and a 10-week paid summer fellowship. Schools pay $10,000 to support students chosen to participate in the program. This year 27 students are participating in producing a multimedia stories about issues related to guns. The students are supervised by five outstanding professional journalists and stories are published and broadcast by major US news outlets.
