WHY IS REAL REPORTING VITAL TO GLOBAL-<br />
AWARENESS AND TO BUILD AN INFORMED<br />
AND ENGAGED SOCIETY?<br />
BREAK 14:15-14:30<br />
Workshop<br />
Room G01<br />
13:00-14:15<br />
The impact of digital technology on news media cannot be<br />
overstated, and has changed the way we consume news. In this<br />
workshop, we will provide teaching strategies to help students<br />
become more “information literate”, and able to discern credible<br />
news sources. Through an examination of various digital news<br />
media, we will also demonstrate how incorporating news reporting<br />
into the curriculum can enrich a student’s learning experience and<br />
aid in the teaching of valuable skills, such as critical thinking.<br />

WHAT DO I SEE? WHAT CAN I DO?<br />
Workshop<br />
Room G02<br />
13:00-14:15<br />
In this workshop participants will share their ideas and develop a<br />
personal action plan for change and development. The main<br />
activities include discussions rounds about:<br />
• Reform and innovation, technology in everyday life, skills<br />
needed to succeed after graduation and personal development<br />
• Innovation at ‘our own’ institution, what we would like to see<br />
and what opportunities for change already exist.<br />
After the discussion participants will write a personal action plan<br />
for their growth and for the support of institutional change.<br />
