Teaching Journalism Today

As others have pointed out, The New York Times provided a terrific version of the speech Obama’s historic speech on election night that includes both the video of the speech and a dynamic transcript which allows viewers to isolate sections of the speech and navigate to them instantly.

As well,  CNN provided an edited version of the speech as part of a terrific Soundslides package.  For anyone teaching students to produce audio slideshows, this is an excellent example of how to match audio tracks with appropriate visuals. Thanks to one of my students for finding this one.
