Higher Education programmes on Immersive journalism approach
The project
Use of immersive technologies in the journalism, media and communication sector
The iStream project is an Erasmus+ Cooperation partnerships in higher education (KA220-HED). It intends to bridge the gap of competences in the use of immersive technologies in the media, journalism and
communication sectors. It aims at improving the effectiveness of Higher education curricula thus reducing digital skills
mismatch in the European media and communication sector.
The project wants:
- to improve knowledge, skills and competences of curricula developers in order to develop and integrate academic training paths focused on immersive journalism
- to improve knowledge, skills and competences of Higher Education teachers and trainers necessary to implement academic courses related to the profile of the immersive journalist.
- to raise awareness of the potential of the use of immersive technologies in the communication and media sector
