International News Reporting
- Graduate course
As a part-time lecturer at Hong Kong Baptist University’s School of Journalism, I taught international news reporting to post-graduate students for one semester per year. I designed the course which called current issues on international news reporting, in order to provide students with the first-hand news room daily operation and field work details. This course is trying to build students analytical thinking about international news, to develop students’ skills in identifying and pitching stories about international affairs, and to enable students to develop sources for reporting on a broad range of international issues.
