Learning Management through the Online News Reporting Platform "Songlae News Station"
Main Article Content
Abstract
This academic article discusses the implementation of learning management through the online news reporting platform "Songlae News Station" The primary objective is to extract lessons from the teaching and learning process in writing and reporting news, facilitated by the development of an integrated online platform within the curriculum of communication studies and academic services. It also examines the components of the "Songlae News Station" platform through the lens of self-directed knowledge construction and appropriate knowledge creation theories. The study employs a methodological framework for lesson extraction, focusing on the teaching context before the integration of the online platform. It investigates the teaching and learning processes in introductory writing and news reporting courses through synthesis and interpretation based on the social constructivist learning framework and the concept of situated learning. Additionally, it proposes a model for innovative online news learning at "Songlae News Station" The findings indicate that the teaching process in the aforementioned courses effectively aligns with both theories, particularly in facilitating self-directed knowledge construction and interaction with the external environment. This encompasses the entire process of news gathering, interviewing sources, and providing students with opportunities to engage with and create authentic content. Furthermore, students receive feedback from audiences after presenting news through the online platform, leading to experiential meaning-making throughout the news reporting process. Students learn how to learn from real-world situations by identifying methods to access news sources and employing negotiation skills in communication to obtain information. Overall, this process fosters social interaction, aligning with the principles of appropriate learning and providing academic service benefits to media practitioners, governmental organizations, and local communities.
