Maarit Jaakkola – författare

I takt med att artificiell intelligens (AI) i snabb takt omformar det journalistiska landskapet, blir det allt viktigare att förstå och förhålla sig till denna teknologiska revolution. Från de tidiga experimenten med robotjournalistik till dagens avancerade AI-verktyg, som automatiserar hela redaktionella processer, står mediebranschen inför en framtid fylld av både möjligheter och utmaningar.Denna lärobok erbjuder en på en gång lättillgänglig och djuplodande introduktion till AI:s roll inom journalistiken. Den är utformad för studenter, yrkesverksamma och andra som vill fördjupa sin förståelse för hur AI kan förbättra journalistiken och förändra vår nyhetskonsumtion. Boken lyfter samtidigt fram de många etiska och profe-ssionella frågor som uppstår när AI integreras i journalistiken.Med en kombination av aktuell forskning och konkreta exempel utrustar AI-journalistik läsaren med det förhållningssätt som krävs för att inte bara förstå, utan också aktivt delta i den pågående omvandlingen av journalistiken.

Pedagogical Opportunities of the Review Genre unleashes the pedagogical potential of the review genre, reframing the act of reviewing of cultural products as a communicative practice from a pedagogical perspective.Negotiating between traditions of journalism and media studies and pedagogy, the author presents a novel approach that will increase the readers’ understanding of an activity that is on the increase in an era where 'everyone can be a critic'. She identifies, describes, and develops genre-based pedagogies in formal, non-formal, and informal contexts of learning and teaching, in order to recontextualize the review as a form of learning and rethink of its potential as an inclusive, engaging, and a transformative critical cultural practice.This innovative and truly interdisciplinary study will interest students and researchers in the areas of media literacy, digital media, media and communication studies, cultural studies, sociology of arts, and pedagogical studies – in particular, cultural journalism and criticism, audience studies, cultural production, and cultural mediation, as well as critical media pedagogy and literacy studies.

Maarit Jaakkola offers a theoretically rich and ambitious approach to journalism literacy education, conceptualizing it in the context of established best practices as a future paradigm for audience engagement and development in the news industry of newswork and industry stakeholder collaborations in media organizations.Building on existing traditions and research on newsroom–school collaborations, media and news literacy movements, and strategic communication for media and cultural organizations, Jaakkola regards journalism literacy education as a collaborative public pedagogy that plays a crucial role in the media education landscape. The book highlights the potentials and challenges of incorporating pedagogical activities into news media organizations’ strategic endeavors as inclusive boundary work.Ultimately, Journalists as Media Educators demonstrates how journalists and news organizations can collaborate with schools, libraries, cultural organizations, and other media literacy actors to establish a stronger foundation for journalism’s role in society.
