The University of Media, Arts Communication-Institute of Journalism (UniMAC-IJ) is set to hold the 10th inter-faculty lecture on Education reportage on November, 10.
The Seminar, dubbed “Considering Education Communication and Schooling Issues: The Education Beat Terrain Reporters Wish to Travel”, will delve into the importance of giving priority to education reporting.
The United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 4, is to ensure that by 2030, all girls and boys complete free, equitable and quality primary and secondary education leading to relevant and Goal-4 effective learning outcomes
In a bit to achieve this, a Senior lecturer and Dean of the School of Alternative Learning (SAL) at UNiMAC-IJ, Dr Stanley Semarco, will lead discussions in the Seminar Room at North Dzorwulu Campus.
Dr Semarco said the media has a role to play in ensuring SDG 4 is achieved, hence the need for student journalists to be trained on the educational structure and how to report on education issues.
“For any country to develop, education is the bedrock, whether it is formal or informal, and that should be at the forefront of the nation’s concerns,” he said.
Speaking on what motivated this research work, Dr Semarco said he sought to know whether trained journalists prioritize reporting on education issues in the country and find the answer to “Is Education the preferred News?”
