In this seminar students will learn how to report and write for radio and how to produce a podcast in the storytelling style of shows like RadioLab, This American Life, and Planet Money. They will research and pitch stories, find the right people to tell the story, form a reporting plan, and learn the fundamentals of writing and delivery. The course will feel a lot like the NPR newsroom and students will leave with a collection of audio pieces and the skills to produce their own podcast.
If the course fills, students may email Margo Bresnen, Journalism Program Manager, at mbresnen@princeton.edu to be put on a wait list. Please include a paragraph explaining your interest in the course.
