Abstract

Studies suggest that the goal of convergence curriculum should be one in which students are prepared both conceptually and practically. The purpose of this study was to examine the experience of students working with new and traditional technologies to develop and produce news stories. The results indicate that participation in the course strengthened both students’ technological skills and skills of importance in traditional journalism—the ability to write, interview, and listen well; to construct a news story; and to adapt to varied situations. Students also developed a deeper understanding of themselves as storytellers.
