For Journalism

Data Journalism for All

the Courses

Each course teaches toward a practical news-application project. We're trying to set scope to allow for one of these courses to be taught as a semester-long university course or as multi-day workshop. Each will include:

  • • an ebook
  • • screencasts
  • • code repositories
  • • forums

the Mission

We have a pipeline problem for people with data and programming skills for journalism. There are great organizations and institutions making tremendous headway, but we need an industry-wide solution for educating the next generation of journalists.

For Journalism is an effort to equip every student, mid-career journalist, professor, graduate student with the knowledge they need to learn technical skills for doing journalism.
