From virtual reality journalism classes to Dragons' Den style assignments, universities are looking for new ideas for their courses
What does a professor of journalism innovation teach? To find out how universities are introducing emerging technologies and new ideas into the classroom, we spoke to two professors who are in charge of journalism innovation courses in their departments.
From teaching entrepreneurship to virtual reality and 360-degree video, they aim to get students ready for the fast-changing media landscape outside of their universities' walls.
Our guests this week are:
Dan Pacheco, Peter A. Horvitz chair of journalism innovation, the Newhouse School at Syracuse University;
Jane Singer, professor of journalism innovation, City, University of London.
