Journalism-Communication studies Tuesday, 18:50 18-05-2021

In western countries, the communication targeted to ethnic minorities is conducted by and for (1) immigrants, (2) ethnic minorities with regards to race, nation and language, (3) native communities of different size from small communities, families, small and medium enterprises to profit and non-profit multinational corporations. This communication includes information about their communities in the resident country, in their home country and it is either in their mother language or local language. The media exists in different forms from print to internet and is suitable to the size of the media organizations and the need for information by the communities. It is important to develop the theoretical and practical understanding of these minority groups in order to devise the policies for Vietnam.

Impacts of artificial intelligence (AI) on journalism education

Abstract: Within just a decade, artificial intelligence (AI) has profoundly transformed nearly every aspect of social life. Journalism, initially marked by apprehension, has gradually moved toward acceptance and adaptation to the integration of AI into professional practices. This transformation has, in turn, reshaped both the content and pedagogical approaches of journalism education. By analyzing the impacts of AI on journalism in general and on journalism education in particular, this article clarifies how AI influences curricula, teaching methods, faculty competencies, and the institutional infrastructure of journalism education in Viet Nam. On that basis, the study proposes a set of recommendations to assist journalism training institutions in integrating AI into pedagogical practices in a responsible and effective manner.
