"Mapping Citizen and Participatory Journalism in Newsrooms, Classrooms and Beyond assesses citizen journalism within the context of hyperlocals, non-profits and large global news organizations, critically examining various forms of participation by citizen contributors to the news. The essays included within the book answer questions such as: Does citizen journalism close the news participation gap between the Global North and South? How can citizen journalism enable the socially excluded to overcome marginalization? What are the obligations of professional news outlets to citizen reporters in war zones? Furthermore, some contributors critique the ways traditional journalism makes use of non-professional content, while others propose new analytical frameworks such as reciprocal journalism, connective journalism and the Appropriation/Amplification Model. The book also investigates efforts to teach ordinary people journalism skills in Europe, the Middle East and both North and South America. Some of the programs scrutinized here instil under-represented groups with semi-professional news values. Other projects support citizen journalism infused with activism such as the photographers of the favela-based jornalismo popular or the volunteer digital humanitarians covering global crises and, in doing so, demonstrate new ways to respond to the rise of grassroots participation in the production of news. The chapters in this book were originally published as special issues of Journalism Practice."--Publisher's website.

Engaged Urban Pedagogy presents a participatoryapproach to teaching built environment subjects by exploring 12examples of real-world engagement in urban planning involvingpeople within and beyond the university. Starting with curriculumreview, course content is analysed in light of urban pasts, race,queer identity, lived experiences and concerns of urbanprofessionals. Case studies then shift to focus on techniques forparticipatory critical pedagogy, including expanding the'classroom' with links to live place-making processes, connectionsmade through digital co-design exercises and student-led podcastingassignments. Finally, the book turns to activities beyond formaluniversity teaching, such as where school-age children learn abouttheir own participation in urban processes alongside universitystudents and researchers. The last cases show how academics haveenabled co-production in local urban developments, trainedcommunity co-researchers and acted as part of a city-to-citylearning network. Throughout the book, editorial commentaryhighlights how these activities are a critical source of supportfor higher education.
Together, the 12 examples demonstrate the power and range of anengaged urban pedagogy. They are written by academics, universitystudents and those working in urban planning and place-making.Drawing on foundational works of critical pedagogy, they present adistinctly urban praxis that will help those in universitiesrespond to the built environment challenges of today.
