Encouragingly, their responses were well informed. Then I gave them just 20 mins (hence typos) to write an op-piece-style blog post on why people needed these skills. kicked off the session by asking them why they felt they needed to study online journalism.

Writing for the web is proving to be kind of hard. I think it's a hard adjustment for us to try to lose quality writing in exchange for convenience for our readers.

I wonder how many of the rules I unwittingly break every time I write. Another thought, unrelated: The reference to bloggers as "competition" by one journalism student startled me. Are blog writers doomed to infamy as witless hacks? Or is a writer a writer? We've all read some pretty ignorant material online, and I suppose you could make a case either way.
