FREE JOURNALISM TOOLKIT

We firmly believe you learn how to be a good journalist by actually being a journalist, and you will have lots of practical opportunities to work on real journalism.

We’ll treat you like a journalist from day one, and to help you, all our School of Journalism trainees will be given their own iPad.

Every journalist today is expected to keep up with modern technology and tell stories through a range of mediums.It isn’t just writing up stories anymore. It is recording vox pops, editing podcasts and creating engaging Instagram content.

To help you learn these essential skills, we’ll equip you with your very own Apple iPad. 

An iPad is a dictaphone, notepad and camera all wrapped up in one.

You won’t just be expected to tell a story in words, but with picture, video and audio so during your multimedia studies, your iPad will quickly become your best friend.

You will be able to use it to shoot and edit video content, produce graphics and infographics for online content, record and upload podcast projects and also to consume media throughout the course.

Another benefit of an iPad is that instead of always using your personal phone, it keeps all of your journalism work in one place, keeping your professional and personal life separate.

The School of Journalism makes sure our trainees always have access to the best resources needed to create outstanding journalism and an iPad is no exception.
