Reportage school Reutlingen

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The reporting school is a private, independent journalism school in Reutlingen .

The reporting school trains young journalists who already have writing experience over a period of twelve months. The lessons are practically oriented: the students research and write reports, which are then discussed intensively with the lecturers. The two most important editorial projects are the online magazine Reporterreisen, for which the course travels abroad, and the graduation magazine GO, which is produced in collaboration with photography students from the University of Hanover.

history

The school was founded in 2004 by the Zeitenspiegel reporting agency and the Reutlingen Adult Education Center . In June 2019, the adult education center announced the separation from the Zeitenspiegel agency. Philipp Maußhardt and Ariel Hauptmeier have been running the school since then . At your side is a four-person management team made up of Heike Faller , Wolfgang Bauer , Michael Obert and Katrin Langhans .

In an interview with the media magazine " Meedia " in September 2019, Hauptmeier and Maußhardt announced that teaching at the school will follow "7 principles" in future. They read: "more writing, more street, more research, more coaching, more responsibility, more startup, more public spirit". They want "in the future to focus even more on writing practice". At the same time they publish a detailed explanation of these principles on the school's new website.

Board of Trustees
