News University Launches Innovative E-Learning for Journalists
News University (www.newsu.org), an innovative Web site designed to help journalists improve their work, launches today after 18 months of development and use by 2,000 early adopters of this new form of training. The NewsU site is produced by a team from The Poynter Institute, which also hosts Poynter Online (www.poynter.org), the nation's most popular Web site for journalists. NewsU's creation was funded by a five-year, $2.8 million grant from the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation. News University works in concert with leading journalism organizations and journalism schools to offer three types of e-learning.
