A new course offering this year at Trinity-Pawling is Broadcast Journalism, a year-long elective open to juniors and seniors aimed at giving students hands-on skills to become effective communicators of the 21st century. Students apply and use journalistic skills for weekly written and video projects while also managing the live webcasts of on campus athletic events. Collaborative skills are demonstrated through the student direction and production of these weekly live broadcasts, from camera and sound operation, to pre-game and post-game on-camera interviews, and live play-by-play and color commentary. With a focus on empowering our boys to be confident communicators, the students will conceive, shoot and edit short documentaries and other video projects in addition to meeting weekly deadlines to be published in the school newspaper.
