At noon time, I joined a round table holed by our department with light lunch. The talk invite three Latin scholars to present their research and teaching, also include our teachers to introduce our production week with a multimedia web site: jusnews. net, which is the work by MA students of Journalism Study, University of Sheffield.
Three guest speakers: one from Argentina, she shared with her workshop of civic engagement. She coordinates a free work shop to help the NGO to learn how to apply for the fund, communication or press release. For their efforts, they help the NGO and also gave the students opportunities to learn how to train people. I thought it is not easy only to ask the students as assistants. But they shall gives chances and responsibilities to them. Finally, the experience help them to enter into the society.
Another one from Spain, he offers a map of transparency of each local council information. The third one talked about English teaching program in Spain. Very interesting topics. Our teacher introduces they have a production week for the MA students to conduct media by themselves and learn from experience. I thought in the eastern society, we respect the elder and think students are not mature to handle things well. They have more freedom and respect here. But, just as Daniel Bell indicates that the eastern culture remind the attitude to learn and listen. I think both aspects should make a balance.
