Making The News
BBC campaign.
(GBR) The BBC News School Report gives 12 and 13-year-olds from UK schools the chance to make their own video, audio or text-based news at school and to broadcast it for real by streaming it live on their site plus making it available through the BBC's red button service.
Lots of politicians, actors, artists, sports stars are giving up their time to be interviewed and support is also being provided by news reporters as wwell. You can find what schools are involved in this funky interactive map
It's a great model for others looking to use a mix of social media and real life settings/aims/deadlines for a project. Bravo BBC.
