- Title
Experiential Learning in Reporting the European Union.
- Authors
NISTOR, CRISTINA; BEURAN, RAREŞ
- Abstract
Reporting the European Union has become a challenge in recent years due both to recent fundamental changes in the media industry determined by the fascinating digital twist and also to the debate around the European project itself (as indicated by the last decade’s referendums and by the highly debated Brexit) or by the immigrants’ crisis that European Union has been facing since 2015. The professional media could play a key role in developing the European public sphere that is required for strengthening the public engagement of EU citizens, thus contributing to increasing democracy in the Union. After presenting theoretical considerations on the journalism curriculum, followed by the European Journalism concept, the authors verify the experiential learning theory analyzing an extra-curricular media project developed in a Romanian University where journalism students are stimulated to develop skills in reporting the EU.
