[MGP-Forum Announce] OFF-LIST RSVP: Please help roundup info re "citizen journalism" training

[Bill Densmore]

MGP2006 alums:

Can we collaborate on a small project? I'd like to write a roundup story and start a resource page linking to training
resources for citizen journalism. This would be any training -- academic, community, grass-roots or institutional, and free or paid -- which proposes to offer guidance to folks who are not paid journalists but wish to learn some principals of journalism for a web-based service. I'm particularly interested to catalog descriptions of what is taught.

Rather than fill up everyone's mailbox with replies, please DO NOT reply to this post. Rather, either send a private post to densmore at mediagiraffe.org, or go to the following wiki page and edit what you know into the wiki. Just click on the EDIT tab, and then the SAVE tab when you're done. Don't worry about formatting -- we'll clean it up.

Here's the URL:
http://www.mediagiraffe.org/wiki/index.php/Citizen_journalism_training

On the page, you'll find a little information for starters.

Thanks!
