|  Following the success of last year's event, to celebrate National Non-Fiction Day, we are running another Make the News challenge. Schools taking part this time are Uckfield, Chailey and William Parker.
Students in these schools will receive newsfeeds via the learning platform Live News Feed forum. They will need to check the changing and developing feeds regularly through the morning, as well as undertake research, (and use their imaginations!), in order to write their articles.
So, groups of students will report on different areas of the news, becoming "correspondents" for various newsdesks for the day. They will submit their articles through the morning via the Editors' Office forum, as well as posing any questions they have.
An editorial team in one school will have the job of giving direction to the reporters about which aspects of stories to focus on, and feeding back on the articles, asking for more detail, or refinements as needed. Using the Editors' Office forum to do this, as soon as they are happy with the articles submitted, the editorial team will add the articles to the online news page on the learning platform, using a wiki.
We are also interested to hear the views and feedback from participating students. Please complete the Make the News Impact Survey to help us assess the challenge.
By the end of the morning, we will have an online news page collaboratively created by East Sussex students. Today's news - tomorrow's journalists.
