On today’s episode, Mark and Emmy are joined by Dr. Ed Madison, a professor at the University of Oregon and the co-founder of The Journalistic Learning Initiative, a program aimed at getting students to learn through journalism at a young age.
Dr. Madison described the history of the program, how it works with middle school students in Oregon and California, and shared the many successes the program has had. He also talked about his work in teaching and in helping students own their future career success.
