The Dickinsonian is our high school publication which has existed since 1923. This year, the executive staff of the Journalism Club and the members of the Applied Journalism course are ambitious to modernize and expand our approach to telling the news as we approach the publication's 100th anniversary. Traditionally a print newspaper program, remote learning catapulted us into experimenting with podcasting and broadcasting last year. Students came with their own experience and equipment (mostly their cell phones) for podcasting and blogging and with a general desire to try broadcasting; however, not having a system and inventory of equipment and materials limited the experience for everyone in the club and the course. Adding these items to our club will propel our media program into the 21st century and help us to grow exponentially. By purchasing these materials, we will be able to fulfill students' interests in the various facets of communication arts: photojournalism, print news, podcasting, broadcasting, blogging. These items will be linked to programs that students can use anywhere: in school, at home, and on their phones. The students will be equipped to provide the news that happens spontaneously anywhere in their community. We will also be able to become more autonomous in our production and growth, using these materials to advance our fundraising efforts as we set up a photo booth for special events and a mini studio for producing commercials that inform and also advance the efforts of other clubs and programs in our school.
