How's that for Zeitgeist - we lecture on JS on Tuesday and the following day UNESCO offers a £500 prize for the best essay on freedom of expression online. Since you've got to blog something anyway... it makes sense t apply. There's an option of Vbloging as well, so an opportunity for second years as well. Details:
Fourth Annual UNESCO Student Journalism Competition - £500 prize
The call for entries for the 2010 UNESCO World Press Freedom Day Student
Journalism Competition has been announced.
The joint organisers of the Day here in the UK – the UK National
Commission for UNESCO and the Press Freedom Network - are inviting
entries on the topic "Unregulated political comment online helps the
democratic process."
Entries can be either articles (up to 1,000 words), audio or video (up
to 3 minutes in length).
The winner will receive a £500 cash prize and be presented with the
award at the 2010 World Press Freedom Day debate in London.
