Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵ

In 2018, the Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵ University Scripps College of Communication launched the Communication Fellows Program. Focusing on curriculum development in communication across PK-12 levels of instruction, the fellowship offers graduate-level professional development credit, project support and generous stipends. We seek to increase interaction and collaboration between PK-12 faculty and higher education faculty who share mutual interests in communication-related instruction.

We define communication broadly to include but not be limited to:

• Social media use and consequences
• Use of communication technology in classrooms by students
• Teaching approaches to using communication technology
• The Internet of Things
• Audio podcasting
• Digital video creation and editing
• Journalism
• Photography
• Digital design
• Public speaking
• Health communication
• The structure of the internet
• Information/news literacy
• And much more 

Up to 10 fellows will be named each year, representative of rural Appalachian districts and urban districts in the state of Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵ.
