Report October 15, 2008 The Hofstra Online Journalism Students Participated in a cutting-edge Web-based News Gathering and A Hybrid Media Production
Using a workflow model
developed by Assistant Professor Mo Krochmal, Students voluntarily staffed a A.M. Schedule • The operation was divided into three day parts, or sections, relevant to the type of events being covered. • Early in the day, the work was to load up a schedule of events, and distribute and track the students who were reporting that event. The students had a selection of tools to report with, including still and video photography, audio, and live remote web cameras. Mid-Day Assignments were tracked and new assignments were added and production began for the next segment. The assignments were posted onto NassauNewsas they were completed. Professor Krochmal produced the posts initially and trained students almost literally on the fly to run positions. JRNL10 students, who are participating in the assignment desk training, ran the day-time assignment desk and also wrote news pieces detailing the coverage of the day in mainstream media. Another team of students, led by journalism graduate student Tim Robertson (Blogger), and JRNL80 students Kelly Glista a(Vlogger) and Jillian Sorgini(Managing Editor), began producing the evening programming show by selecting and writing background news text and selecting videos of the day’s reports. Pre-Game • The live programming required a reloading of the Nassau News content management system, to include a rich- media web-based free application, CoverItLive.com, the fourth instance of the use of this service since December 2007. • As had been done in May, 2008, the CIL service was blended with a free video streaming service, Mogulus.com, for the studio streamcast and Ustream.tv for Game On • When the debate began, the streamcast shifted to a more text presentation, with no narrator on Mogulus.com and a live-blogging operation with collaborative reporters from Arizona State University, and nearby Adelphi University as well as Hofstra alumni and students. • This operation was fueled by a combination of resources: – Students actively Twittered (microblog and social media) on their own accounts, including live Twittering the event from inside the debate hall as well as an official live Twitter blog. – CoveritLive was seeded by invitations to a number of universities to join in the live audience submitting comments. – JRNL80 students prepared briefing papers on more than 30 domestic and economic policy issues that the Post Game • After the debate, the operation continued, shifting to live video streaming, originally planned to begin with analysis, and then debriefing reports from students who were within the debate hall, but unable to communicate reports due to security rules. Issues • Personnel -- University debate operations took a large number of student reporters and producers out of the pool of availability, and school regulations deemed any other participation to voluntary basis. – Participation was enthusiastic with some staying from start to finish. • The Professor as Bottleneck – To many things to do to put it on. – Overcome by on-the-fly delegating, training. Asset for next production. • An Enthusiastic but Inexperienced Group – Overcome by on-the-fly delegating, training. Now, experienced • Stamina – Overcome by bad coffee, weenies, and chocolate. Content • In the period from 8 a.m. until 2 p.m., students produced: • 43 separate original and edited news posts on Nassau News, ranging from slideshows, to taped video reports, text articles, and audio, all reported via a number of technologies, including rudimentary mobile distribution technology; • And, over six hours of live video Reach • From Oct. 13-Oct. 17, site attracted 637 visitors (70 percent new) from 20 countries, a milestone. Some 242 visitors came from Hofstra. 122 came from Germany. • The site logs list visitors from the University of Arizona, Arizona State, Penn State, George Washington University, University of Florida, Stony Brook, Rider University, Pratt Institute, Ocean State, Pratt Institute, New York City Public Schools, National Institutes of Health, CW Post, California State, Cal-Santa Cruz, University of New Hampshire, New York University, Northeastern University, Assumption College, Columbia University, and Amherst. • Media Organizations on the logs include: WGBH, WYNC, South Hampton Press, Hearst, Fox/T3 Secaucus, Emmis Communications, Crocker Communications, Disney, Advance Publications, Hachette Filipacchi, Cox Communications, Jobson Publishing, Scranton Times, CBS,. • Non Internet-provider Businesses visiting included: Perot Systems, Bayer, Canon USA, Daimler, Ford Motor Company, First Financial of Maryland Federal, JP Morgan Chase, Nabisco, Rubie’s Costumes, United States Postal Service. • 59 visits from Facebook, 10 from Twitter.

(73), Arizona (38), New Jersey (27), Maryland (22), Pennsylvania (17), California (16), Florida (15), Rhode Island (10), Success • As a beta test of this melange of freely available web-based technologies and services, this was ambitious and ultimately – successful. • The students performed had a deep real-world, deadline pressure
