Super big 🙏🏻 to @sharon_magill for getting this wonderful picture of Geoff Mungham displayed in @CardiffJomec — Geoff set up #MAIJCymru and was an inspirational teacher. I owe him a massive debt. The quotes are from his students when he died in 2007. https://t.co/WIl4uYiFG0 pic.twitter.com/84Hjdfig0j

We will work on two practical journalism modules together — INP1 in Semester One and INP2 in Semester Two.

In Semester One, we will meet on Mondays and Fridays. In Semester Two we will meet on Mondays and Thursdays.

Please take time to read the Module Handbook for INP1. It provides more information about what we are aiming to do on the pathway. It will also be useful to read this post before we start. If you have any questions, please email me, or ask when we meet. Don’t be scared — questions are good!

There are two assessments. Here is information about the radio assessment. And here is information about the TV assessment.

Here is the week by week timetable for Broadcast INP1. Please note, some activities and timings may change. Please also note that attendance is compulsory and we start promptly at 09:30am every day.

All the relevant course information, handouts, assessment briefs etc will also be available on Learning Central. This site is an additional resource for you and does not replace Learning Central.
