For start of term in September 2009 all of the information on this website will be updated to reflect the Cutlines online journalism program for 2009/10 at the Graduate School of Journalism, City University, London.

An interesting point has come up in a lot of the lab sessions, as well as in the feedback survey that we conducted last week.

There are a lot of different ways you could run something that is referred to in print as an “online journalism lab”.

We could teach you all a formulaic set of steps to produce the same identical output for each student.

There have even been two or three isolated requests for this. To those two or three people I can only say “sorry”.

Instead, I’d like to explain clearly what we are doing in the labs, why we are doing it that way, what you should expect from us, and what we are expecting from you, the students. » Read the rest of the entry..
