Teaching Journalism in Ukraine at the Present Period: the Problems of Theory and Practice

Abstract

It seems effectively to unite problems of teaching journalism at the present period in three groups: 1) connected with the practice transition from the journalism focused on the comment to the journalism focused on information (disproportional distribution of hours, discrepancy of textbooks and so forth); 2) caused by emergence of new media, formation of global journalism and change of means of production; 3) caused by the need to change a way of teaching, having passed from mentoring to facilitation.
