Student News

As you know, journalism is about change, recording it and acting on it. The Fox CT Student News' program is designed to help students better prepare for multi platform journalism, both for college and the job market.

• We will use one of the highest visibility platforms in the state, CTnow.com, to showcase the work of the students. Using the web allows us to add to the information in the stories.
• Students will be able to tell their stories using three distinctive formats; text, video, and pictures.
• Student journalists who previously had only worked in print or stills can now be integrated into this program.
• We've redesigned our Student News page http://www.ctnow.com/studentnews in order to make it a destination for news by, for and about Connecticut students.
• Each story will have its own unique page with a URL. Students, parents or schools can post to social media like Facebook, Twitter or Google +.

• Video up to 90 seconds uploaded to a dedicated YouTube account
• Up to 10 photos, with captions, uploaded to a dedicated photo sharing service
• Minimum 200 word text story that includes links to the subject matter

We urge new teachers and schools to participate in this program.
