Presentation
With the rise of the Internet, most information is now read online rather than on paper. Journalists therefore need to adapt to digital media to continue their work. This course teaches you to handle online communication effectively and give your digital content greater impact.
Objectives

Program
- The characteristics of digital information and communication: continuous updates, multiple media including text, audio and video, interactivity and links.
- Writing with online reading habits in mind: what engages readers and what slows or stops reading.
- Writing for the web: establishing and following editorial policy, choosing formats such as conventional articles, slideshows and video, digital-specific formats and writing styles.
