| Abstract: | While reading the January/February 1999 edition of the Columbia Journalism Review I met with a stimulating article which inspired me to write this contribution. The experience, with many deep educational - and pedagogical - implications, could be easily emulated by any Maltese school - or journalist - of any social standing. Thus I thought worth sharing this experience with the readers of the Education 2000 journal and add some of my thoughts on the matter and give some suggestions. The compelling story started four years ago when Leslie Seifert, an opinion editor for Newsday and an adjunct professor at Columbia's Graduate School of Journalism, approached the 500-student Middle College High in New York City, a school for children in danger of becoming dropouts, and proposed starting a school newspaper, free from censorship by the principal and staff. |
