ICFJ offers online course on freedom of expression in the digital age

December 04, 2009 - January 22, 2010


Journalists from across the Arab world, North America and Europe are invited to participate in an online training course entitled “Freedom of expression in the digital age,” which will be held December 4, 2009 to January 22, 2010. Deadline to apply: November 27.
During the five-week course, participants will develop skills in producing multimedia content, including writing and blogging for the Web. They will also learn to manage online communities that attract constructive, responsible dialogue. Through an exploration of sites such as Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube, participants will learn how social networking is being used in news coverage and how journalists can best use citizen-produced content in ways that promote intercultural understanding.
