We know it’s not always possible to bring your students out of the classroom to experience higher education, so we can bring the higher education experience to you. If you would like to arrange a bespoke visit to campus we can extend these talks into longer taster sessions.
We examine how the media covers major breaking news events and the responsibilities and rules govern their coverage. How do they cover tragic events while protecting people’s rights to privacy? We discuss ethics, responsibility and audience demand
How does campaigning journalism expose wrongdoing and bring social change? We discuss exercising legal rights and how to hold the powerful to account.
Should emotion be brought into reports on conflict?
In an age where anyone can be a publisher, how do we sort the facts from the fake? We examine the role of mainstream media, social media and AI and share insights and skills that help consume content through a critical lens.
How are public services funded and who decides where money is spent? How are new laws made and society changed? What voice do you have and how do you use it? Students explore democracy in action across local and national government.
We explore the benefits of becoming a football reporter.
We explore how journalism is changing with technology and the opportunities this brings.
We look at legal issues facing modern journalists and social media commentators.
Students exploring the symbiotic, but often-uneasy relationship, between public relations and journalism.
How are women and minorities portrayed across the media?
Why do stories make the headlines?
