Hey student journalists- learn from late night hosts like James Corden- interviewing from home will transform what your product looks like, but it can also result in better journalism

[Los Angeles Times @latimes]

In the latest episode of The Times’ TV podcast, “Can’t Stop Watching,” host Yvonne Villarreal asks “The Late Late Show” host James Corden how the COVID-19 pandemic has changed his approach to his (now-remote) variety show.

When you start reading tweets from your j-fam you will end up finding so much more than just strategies for being a great adviser- you’ll find tools for being a better teacher and human. Really great ideas for both synch & asynch learning here. Thanks @jhump96 @FlipWithMoodle

[mjpercival @MeghanPercival]

So glad I took @Anniefalkenberg recommendation and started listening to the Vrain Waves podcast. The episode on feedback gave me this jewel: it’s not about good/ bad or right/wrong-it’s about where do I go next...for both student and teacher. #leapoflearning @mcleanhigh
