The Center for Scholastic Journalism wants to partner with high school journalism programs across the nation, organizing them into a news consortium to be known as JWire.
JWire will:
• Meet electronically to share ideas, sources and stories.
• Plan, develop and produce, individually or in teams, multi-source reporting for print, online and multimedia formats, for member publications and other “subscribers.”
• Present sessions at scholastic journalism conventions about the project and show the importance of such reporting in a democracy.
• Offer a road map for others to follow to help them report like this.
• Catalogue depth stories others can use for models and resources;
• Train online and at Kent State to be better at investigative reporting, multi-source story planning and multimedia techniques;
• Receive special critiques from newsroom and classroom professionals;
• Share ideas and sources, including discussions (blogs, Facebook, Google Doc Use, Wiki, Twitter, etc).
