Description
From open journalism and distributed pro-am collaboration to realtime crisis mapping, ambient sensing and distribution, wearable computing, predictive journalism, news AI (artificial intelligence), big data and beyond, this session examines emergent technologies’ ground-level disruptive impact on practical newsgathering, how they are being used, and what lies ahead.

Participants will leave with an understanding of seismic shifts to come and critical making for a practical, strategic framework to build the sustainable news services of the future.

QUESTIONS ANSWERED:

What disruptive change and technologies will shape news in the near to medium term?

How will change affect collection, production and markets for news?

What is a journalist’s role in making this happen?

How can journalists critically, and strategically lead and prepare for change?

How can journalists collaborate with citizen mappers to improve the quality of their coverage?

The presentation will be a blend of presentation, Q&A, hands-on design jam and/or exercises, modelling and “play” (as time allocation allows), and discussion.
