S1E18: Live and Learn

S1E18: LIVE AND LEARN With schools returning for a new academic year, will the lessons learned in the past 18 months turn out students who are better prepared for the world of work? In this episode, we ask: How can broadcasters benefit from the way young journalists consume media? Why do newsrooms need digital natives in their ranks? And what does this mean for the future of teaching the media professionals of the future? Our Guest This Episode Tom Rumes is Program Manager and Head of Media Services at Thomas More University in Belgium. He is the author of two books—How to Story and Be the Story—on transmedia storytelling. Over the past several years, he’s lectured at MIT, Moscow State University, and Kindai University in Osaka. He’s always combined teaching with professional training and consultancy for different media companies and is the founding father of such groundbreaking projects as Jail TV and the first interactive documentary in Belgium, Brickland.
