The Knight Digital Media Center's Web 2.0 Training for Journalists, February 22-26, 2010, provides participants with hands-on, newsroom-focused training on innovative publishing tools and technologies. Workshop fellows create data-driven map mash-ups, use Google publishing and data visualization tools, create SEO-smart blog posts, shoot, edit and post HD video, create publication widgets, and use Facebook and Twitter both for reporting and for driving traffic.
A major component of the intense 12-hour daily schedule is engaging in discussions lead by national leaders in journalism, technology, business, and newsroom innovation. Participants leave with new tools for reporting and with new insights on how to serve new and emerging audiences.
To fill out the application, you'll need to register at the site (and confirm that in an email link). By registering, you'll be able to save your application and return later to complete, update or edit it.
The application includes questions about your contact information and place of employment and your proficiency in various equipment and software, as well as a statement of interest by you, a letter for support from a supervisor and a resume summary of your journalism experience.
