  Retired print journalism/online media instructor

  VMT is an extension of the school district's three high schools. I have changed the print journalism program to embrace new media

  so we are now blogging and creating video and audio programming on the newspaper's website (http://magnettribune.org) in addition to journalism writing and digital photography. Students staff and produce the state- and nationally recognized The Magnet Tribune newspaper

  in print and online editions.\n\nI have closed the black-and-white darkroom and redirected those resources into online media.
