Brian Storm will be giving an overview of MediaStorm’s educational offerings including the the MediaStorm Platform<\/a> and Online Training<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"\"Online group seminar, June 4-5, 2021<\/em><\/p>\n

Now in its 11th year, Teachapalooza is the place for college journalism educators to catch up, power up and reignite their passion for teaching. A successful virtual gathering in 2020 gave more educators the opportunity to attend, allowed for more guest instructors to tune in and share their wisdom, and provided a unique focus on the art of online teaching, so we will host a virtual version of Teachapalooza again in 2021!<\/p>\n

Join us for two fast-paced days of relevant, cut-to-the-chase learning for journalism educators. We will record the sessions so participants can capture anything they miss in the live online session. Our plan is to bring you fresh, practical and specific teaching \u2014 exactly what you have come to expect from Teachapalooza.<\/p>\n

Poynter Director of College Programming Barbara Allen<\/a> will join longtime Teachapalooza Senior Faculty Al Tompkins<\/a> as co-lead of Teacha 2021.

Teachapalooza alumni have come to rely on this community of teachers and its yearly meeting to help them navigate challenges, reconvene with friends and refuel with ideas for the coming academic year. Once you attend, you\u2019ll find that the Teachapalooza community supports you every step of the way.<\/p>\n
