成人快手 School Report News Day 2011
Tomorrow 成人快手 News will be joined by 30,000 . These 11-14-year-olds have been with the help of their teachers and the 成人快手. Their task is to complete their own reports by 14:00 GMT and upload it to their school websites. We're linking to them all so 成人快手 audiences can get the news from more than .
With all that's going on in the world today - the Budget, the crisis in Libya, - what will they prioritise? It's difficult for the 成人快手 to make choices about which news stories to cover so how will the students? If you're an 11-14-year-old living in the UK, what is important to you right now?
We recently conducted a which gives an interesting insight into the world of some of our young reporters. About 24,000 children from School Reporter schools completed the questions, many relating directly to the .
The results have been sent to the schools that took part to use on News Day. I was struck by the low numbers choosing the answer "being famous" to the question what do you hope to have achieved by the time you are 30. It's the fifth year for School Report and the young people who work with us always confound the media stereotypes.
The range and quality of stories coming in already is amazing: St Albans School Reporters on the 成人快手 News Channel and Sky Sports News, Hounsdown School , and 15-year-old Mohammad .
On News Day, there will be seven hours of live TV and radio coverage through the and red button. And this year we'll make history with the first live television broadcast from the new Studio Block at MediaCityUK in Salford. In London, School Reporters have interviewed the prime minister at a . Ed Miliband did the same at a school in Lambeth. Students have also interviewed Nick Clegg in his office, and there will be interviews with political leaders in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.
We'll be updating a live news feed on our website and our Twitter feed throughout News Day, so please follow what our School Reporters are doing and let us know what you think.

I'm all agog!
If they were to focus on what is wrong with 成人快手 online policy, the 成人快手 might love it - they could Tweet and Twitter and Facebook and MySpace and YouTube and chatter and natter all day long - and the 成人快手 wonks, who must have at least two brains each, could have orgasms of self-validation
. . . . . but would it still be the 成人快手?

World News.
This might help them to understand where places are and what is going on there.
In the absence of proper Geography in UK schools, the 成人快手 might serve a useful purpose.
There is more out there than just Afganistan/Pakistan, Japan and Libya.

I wonder if John Terry featured in the ''Being famous' category, or in the 'Sordidly infamous' category.
Some people (including 成人快手 Libya reporters, it seems - see last blog's Comments -) can get away with anything,
and our young reporters are so forgiving - I'm taking bets that, under the close tutilage of the 成人快手, the school reporters never even broached marital infidelity.

For instance, the position at Fukishima remains highly unstable and unascertained, with the very real possibility of an eventual major radioactivity release, I read elsewhere. Where are the factual updates?
Incidentally, it seems to me that if the first few comments relating to a topic, on this page, are not flattering to the 成人快手, then a new one appears very quickly to push it down the rankings.

Perhaps it would interest to Mohammad to know that in the 1950's, in the East End of Glasgow, we also used to supply our own equipment, such as jackets for goals, and an old tennis ball if we were lucky. We didn't feel a bit deprived, and weren't waiting for top kit to be supplied from Afghanistan either. But, oh, wait a minute, I forgot. There wasn't an Afghan army parked on my doorstep either.

If you calculate the extra VAT the Government receives on the fuel price increase this year due to the oil price increases, (excluding the VAT rise) this is more than 1p!

Mine were either not selected, in that unique way the 成人快手 seems to champion with its 'journalism', or maybe their teachers did not apply, possibly reflecting alternative empathies or priorities.
History may judge whether this was a bullet well dodged.

A new media academy of eight hundred schools conditioned into believing the 成人快手 is something it hasn't been for a long time, not that many working for the Corporation actually notice. Budding journalists plucked from under the nose of Uncle Rupert.
At least they will all know facebook and twitter then. This is pitiful 成人快手.

Well, I was thoroughly impressed by the two young lads, and how they conducted the topic with patience, clarity and intelligence. It undoubtedly emboldened anyone with similar problems and insight on how to overcome them. An interview of refreshing delight and I applaud their excellent achievement. Long may it continue lads.
Hope we get an update on how things are progressing for you both.

Not sure if I would be so agreeably enthusiastic for the defiant thinking currently on display before hitting the RT.
Early days yet, but it will be interesting to see how the follower/ee ratio evolves from the current 567 being followed to attract 240 before too many national projections get made in the polls/surveys that can get used to generate headline news.

Bravissimi, Students and Teachers!
Calling attention to the hospitals and farms was brilliantly done, as was the reminder that journalism is a serious and demanding profession that too many take for granted.
But most, particularly, how impressive -- how invaluable -- to see the Prime Minister himself, and the Chancellor, as well as so many others, taking time to participate and encourage our next generation.
Years ago, I remember taking part in programmes back in California that had a similar orientation, for example Model UN or Youth in Government days.
There are so many ways we can include responsible young people, thereby also involving their families and their communities, and providing excellent motivation to all young people to strive to attain their utmost potential, fearlessly.
For nothing comes of nothing -- doing Something, s trivial as it might sometimes appear to the grown-ups with their stresses ad busy lives -- can introduce a crucial turning point into so many families and young lives!

"A year ago, 成人快手 News didn't have any correspondents or reporters who were tweeting officially - apart from Laura Kuenssberg - and only a couple of news programmes with any official presence on the platform.
We were using the @成人快手_haveyoursay account to try to gauge audience sentiment and feed it into 成人快手 News output.
It was a useful means of tapping into the real-time conversation, but it felt a bit removed from being able to engage more directly with those who were tweeting."
So, Steve, you were trying to gauge audience sentiment of HYS, but thought it bore little relation to a Tweeting audience!
My, you really have GOOD researchers! And you now think that we should kill off the old HYS and its audience in favour of the Tweeters.
Did you learn Nothing At All from the months of research you did on the characteristics of the HYS and its online community?
In the last two weeks the Editor's Blog reiterated your culpable cupidity to change it to a Tweet community.
Do you EVER listen to your online community? - I mean REALLY LISTEN.
Because you conspicuously set a diametrically opposite course to the guidance that it so freely gives you.
DO YOU EVER REALLY LISTEN?

I should like to ask Richard, through Editors Blog to address the following:
鈥淢istaken radiation readings given out by the operator of Japan鈥檚 crippled nuclear plant were 鈥渁bsolutely unforgivable,鈥 the government鈥檚 chief spokesman said on Monday, as work to prevent a catastrophic meltdown faced fresh hurdles.鈥 (Reuters, 28 March, 2011)
Richard, you produced a blog topic on the Japanese earthquake/tsunami that some said was good - I found it superficial, though full of further links to periferal aspects.
Now we have "Mistaken Radiation Readings" - this is really 'the dog that didn't bark' and opens up the real agenda that you failed even to address - cover-up and the worldwide 'conspiracy of misinformation'.
There may be good political reasons for misinformation, but are you, Richard, aware of it? - indeed, are you part of it?

I recently toured the BCC in London with 20 fellow students from the Missouri School of Journalism. I can't tell you how disappointing it was that not one reporter, anchor or producer could be bothered to come out and talk to us for 10 minutes. We were not random tourists; we were all journalism students from a well-known university.
With all the cosmic changes happening in the industry, it's inexcusable that no one from the 成人快手 was available to discuss broadcast careers/advice, except a tour guide with no firsthand media experience. Shame on the 成人快手 for such shabby treatment.
