I read your list of ideas, and Angela MacIsaac’s note about the two-year J-program here at Holland College, with interest. I was hired to replace Martin Dorrell after he died in a car accident. Here are a few observations. Time it takes to introduce courses – We’re fortunate, we don’t have a long gestation period for course changes. I introduced Manipulation and the Media and Science and the Media simply by doing it. Value of in-class exercises – I agree, make it real. We’ve revamped our program so students now spend 12 of 15 weeks in term 2 of year 1 producing stories for our paper. They start interviewing in week 4 of term 1 and must do 10 warm-body interviews by Christmas.
