SUMMARY:The Transparency Series - Series 3\, Virtual Reality (Talk)
DESCRIPTION:OPEN TO ALL COLUMBIANS \nA unique set of seminars and hands-on workshops that bring new technology and design ideas to the Columbia Journalism community. The goal is simple — help students learn new ways to find and tell stories\, new ways to inform and entertain. Each topic will commence with a Friday evening panel discussion and will follow with a Saturday hands-on workshop centered around building. \nStudents attending three of the seminar-workshops over the course of the year will receive a graduation award indicating the extra breadth they sought out during their time at the J-School. \n*** \nJoin the Brown Institute in welcoming Raney Aronson-Rath\, Executive Producer at FRONTLINE\, PBS to talk about virtual reality\, and its role in how we tell stories. With the recent explosion of VR – specifically 360-degree video– journalistic outlets are hungry for quality documentary content for immersive platforms. While immersive media experiences have become increasingly prevalent in the gaming and entertainment industry\, we are only beginning to explore them within the context of documentary photography and journalism. How can media makers use immersion as a tool to build empathy\, engage communities\, and forward social change? How does immersing your viewer in content change the nature of the story you are telling? And how does this mode of experiencing a story change how journalists approach the planning\, creation\, and distribution of stories?

SUMMARY:Fundamentals of User Research (Workshop)
DESCRIPTION:OPEN TO ALL COLUMBIANS \nOne of the core tenets of human centered design is understanding the needs of others. The ability to uncover and solve unmet needs is something all successful startups do well. Additionally\, this acute awareness of users has been proven to drive innovation and creativity in more traditional settings. \nJoin us in this introductory sprint to learn how to use design tools including interviewing\, analogous spaces\, empathy probes\, and more. By the end of the sprint\, you will have practiced these tools to understand communities and pinpoint areas of opportunity for entrepreneurship. \nThis sprint is hands-on and fast paced! Come with your own idea or we will provide you with a topic to research. This event is open to all Columbia affiliates.
