new millennium?
Challenges and limits
Human knowledge doubles every
seven years
 Approximately half century passes
from the beginning of high school
education to the end of career for a
journalist or media manager
 What can we predict? For instance, in
1954…

What should we offer to the
students for the media industry in
21st century when:
Technology explodes
 Markets evolve
 Trends change
 Media are in (con)fusion



Growth and the creation of jobs is of the
utmost urgency and action is required now
if this is to be achieved.
Priority has to be given to increasing
investment in higher education and
research now as a key long-term
strategy for the region,
in order to meet both the
• current and
• emerging needs of citizens.
COE 1994 Principle #1



The maintenance and development of genuine
democracy require the existence and strengthening of
free, independent, pluralistic and responsible
journalism. This requirement is reflected in the need
for journalism to:
inform individuals on the activities of public powers as
well as on the activities of the private sector, thus
providing them with the possibility of forming
opinions;
allow both individuals and groups to express opinions,
thus contributing to keeping public and private
powers, as well as society in general, informed of
their opinions;
submit the exercise of the various types of powers to
continuous and critical examination.
Repetitio est mater…
Growth and the creation of jobs is of
the utmost urgency and action is
required now if this is to be
achieved.
 Creating opportunities for flexible
learning paths in higher education
 Inclusion of lifelong learning
strategies

Higher education has to be…

…able to promote employability
(The Sorbonne Declaration, May 25th, 1998)

…relevant to the European labour market
(The Bologna Declaration, June 19th, 1999)
…even for employees in the media industry:

Stage
…fifty-fifty
A way to illiteracy
There are faculties in Balkans where
a student is allowed to earn her/his
B.Sc. in journalism writing in four
years less than 162.000 characters
(27.000 words, 90 pages)
 …i. e. less than a Harvard student of
economy is obliged to produce
sometimes in three subsequent
weeks

Full immersion needed

College isolation
• intensive learning and creativity often require
withdrawal from everyday life

Modular agenda
• it is better to have the best teacher for a short
term instead of full time mediocre teacher

Why? Because in SE Europe nowadays
• an average student begins a preparation 7
days before the exam;
• he spends 5-6 years to achieve a B.Sc.
