The course gives a general introduction to news journalism and reporting, with an emphasis on the journalistic work process in digital media. The student will apply the journalist’s method: developing ideas, doing research, treating sources in a critical manner, interviewing, and presenting news in various genres and media. Alternative methods, e.g. from design, will be applied to demonstrate the possibilities of communication design with regard to graphics, information structure and user-oriententation. The student will produce a number of news stories during editorial workshops and publish them in a web newspaper for the Oresund region.
The student will get an opportunity to study journalistic storytelling with the help of hypertext, digital photo or moving pictures. Technical constraints and innovative opportunities within digital publishing will be introduced by case studies. The student will integrate and demonstrate his knowledge by planning and producing a final project.

Studies will be carried out as individual and group assignments, workshops and lectures. Individual tutorials will be available. Students will be assessed by the instructor and other students.
