MOBILIZING JOURNALISM EDUCATION Thomas Cochrane, Danni
Mulrennan, Helen Sissons Journalism in
the 21st century has been radically changed through the ubiquitous
connectivity and sharing of mobile social media, and a cultural
shift is required for journalism educators to enable engagement and
critical reflection upon the use of mobile social media into new
pedagogical strategies (Poerksen, 2011; Balsamo, 2011). A sustained
community of practice of like-minded journalism educators, was
brought together to investigate the potential of mobile social media
within their teaching and professional practice (Cochrane, Sissons,
& Mulrennan, 2012). The paper evaluates several examples of
integrating mobile social media within new pedagogical frameworks
applied to journalism education. |
