PeoPo Summer Internship– Initiating the First Step in Citizen Reporting（August Camp)

PeoPo Summer Internship 
– Initiating the First Step in Citizen Reporting（August Camp)

During the months of July and August each year, PeoPo Citizen Journalism Platform holds summer camps to foster new citizen journalist talent in the student ranks. Regardless of whether the students are majoring is Communication Studies or not, the summer camp’s rich and unique course content has made it all the rage for those students interested in learning about newsgathering and news production. 

Attracting the participation of nearly 50 college students, the diverse course syllabus of August 2014’s camp included: sharing the theoretical and practical aspects of newsgathering; filming demonstrations; writing and voiceover practice; and SNG connection practice, etc. Four days into the course, students were provided with a wonderful opportunity to utilize all the classroom theory and practical demonstrations by filming and producing their own reports – many of these excellent quality reports produced by students at the summer vacation can be seen on PeoPo Citizen Journalism Platform.

PeoPo is hopeful that this month’s camp will plant the seeds of citizen journalism in the hearts of these students, promote civic awareness and help hasten the maturing of Taiwan’s civil society.

每年暑假的七八月期間，PeoPo公民新聞平台都會舉辦暑期實習營，培訓年輕的學生成為公民記者。豐富有特色的課程內容，成為傳播科系與非傳播科系的學生學習採訪、製作新聞參加的熱門營隊。

2014年八月份共有近50位的大專學生前來參加，經過各種課程，包括採訪理論與實務的分享、拍攝示範、撰稿與配音練習、SNG連線練習等，四天的課程之後，同學就開始外拍製作公民報導，在PeoPo公民新聞平台上也陸續可以看到許多暑期實習營學生的優質作品，幾分鐘的影音作品就是同學把課堂所學的理論，實踐執行的最好機會。PeoPo也希望這一個月的營隊可以在同學心中種下公民新聞的種子，增進公民意識，讓台灣公民社會更趨成熟。
