The PBS NewsHour Extra Student Reporting Labs connects high school students to local PBS stations and news professionals in their community to produce original, student-generated news video reports. Student Reporting Labs provides an innovative journalism curriculum and an online collaborative space for students to develop digital media, critical thinking, and communication skills while producing original news reports for PBS NewsHour Extra. The young people who participate in the project learn how to report, problem-solve, synthesize information, and investigate important topics; they use journalism as a form of learning.
