Last week our students in the Journalism: News and Feature Writing class had the exciting chance to report on a breaking news story. The class, led by Glenn Machon, a UK freelance journalist, taught the students how to lead an interview using simple equipment and engaging questions. 

The students were reporting on the latest study by QS that found London to be one of the best cities to study in the world. The class was a great success with the students really getting into their roles as both the interviewer and the interviewee.

The two videos in the header bar are of students interviewing each other. Warning, you may find some of the answers will make you want to come and study in London. According to both the QS report and the Arcadia London students London is seen as a safe and resourceful city, that has great transportation.

Well done to all that were involved in the class, we have enjoyed watching your reports.
