CHANGES TO MY STUDY PROGRAM

Hello again!! Today i have to talk about the possible changes that i like in my career or study program. First of all i think that Journalism is a career that could perfectly last three years, giving only career courses, this would help to have a faster and real encounter with the exercise of the profession in real life. I like the theoretical subjects, but I think they could be elective and so those who feel interested in these subjects can take them if they want, but I think that journalism is really learned by practicing and I feel that these subjects sometimes overwhelm us unnecessarily.

We must also remember that journalism is a new career, until recently being a journalist was a trade, so it is understood that real life has been the true school of journalism.

Another thing I would like to improve is the way to reach people, I talk about interviews or reporting, many times they send us to press points or to investigate real cases and because of nerves or shyness we do not do a good job with the sources, I think that there should be a subject that will teach us to speak with unknown people for the first time, even more if it is to obtain information.

As for the infrastructure, I think we have many very useful materials for the exercise, we have a radio and television studio, this helps a lot to put us in the place of a real journalist, which as I said is the way to follow the career.
