The executive team for Friday’s assessed news day comprises:

Alan McGuinness: Joint-editor

Becci Hughes: Joint-editor

Kelsey Williams

The names of the assessed reporters will be posted tomorrow afternoon.

You will be required to produce an online news service with a mixture of national, international and local stories using all of the multimedia techniques at your disposal. The site should be updated from 9am to 5pm. It is entirely up to you how you build and design your site, but the Centre for Journalism can provide the hosting for it if you wish. I’ll be happy to provide support and advice in setting it up – but the running of it on the day will be entirely down to your team. It’s also up to you to use the social media skills you have developed to attract an audience to your site.
