Digital Storytelling Abroad: Info Session on Summer Journalism Course in Italy

09/10/16

Contributed by Anthony C. Adornato

Build your portfolio of work and expand your digital storytelling skills while immersed in Italian life and culture. Journalism professor Anthony Adornato will be teaching a four-week multimedia journalism course in Urbino, Italy. Two Pulitzer Prize-winning journalists also teach as part of the Urbino program. The course is open to journalism and non-journalism majors.

An information session for interested students will be held at 7 p.m. on Wednesday, October 5 in Park 223.  (Yes, there will be pizza and Italian pastries!)

Students in the "Summer in Urbino, Italy" program engage in independent interactions with residents of a small community in the Marche Region of Italy. The experiential program involves a digital storytelling project in which each student conducts field research and produces a multimedia journalism story on a person, place or event in the area. 

Working with a team of experienced media professionals in Urbino, you'll get a taste of being a foreign correspondent. Students live at the University of Urbino and collaborate with Urbino students who serve as translators and interpreters in the field. 

At this session, learn more about the course, part of the Institute for Education in International Media, which focuses on study abroad opportunities for communications students.
