"But as someone who spent the last three years in journalism education, our J-schools aren’t currently tooled to work with those problem sets. They are, by and large, teaching the other side of the equation: the writers.
Yet even on the writer’s side we need to be teaching beyond the now accepted J-school norms of Soundslides, iMovie, and maybe a little (shudder) Flash. We need to be building out more fully realized skillsets that include basic coding, an understanding of editorial UX, working with data, and a lot more contextual understanding of storytelling and reporting that is of the web, and not simply an extension of print."
