I was fortunate to be on a lively panel for this year’s Association for Education in Journalism and Mass Communication (AEJMC) Conference in D.C.

The session was titled “Why all your students must be programmers,” but I named it The #AEJMCBattleRoyale.

Organized and moderated by Medill’s Jeremy Gilbert, the panelists included:

• Brian Boyer, news applications editor, National Public Radio
• Michelle Minkoff, interactive producer, The Associated Press
• Jennifer George-Palilonis, Ball State
• Yuri Victor, director of user experience, Washington Post
• Matt Waite, Nebraska at Lincoln

and me.

Here is a G+ Hangout of the talk… as expected, strong language was used and knowledge was dropped.

Here are the latest #AEJMCBattleRoyale tweets:
