Important things for Journalism students in Lockdown Scenario and What should be their career approach when exams are postponed?



The outbreak of coronavirus is increasing and not only the country but the whole world is imprisoned in their homes. First of all, we will also advise you to stay in your homes for the next few days. In the language of the Prime Minister, draw a Laxman Rekha in front of your house and decide that the line is not to be crossed. In today's blog, we will tell you what you can do during this lockdown.


Read Books
There is no age to read. We learn as much as we read. So during this time, we should study a lot. Books can be of any kind. Hindi Upanyas, English Novel, Biography or the book you probably like the least, your syllabus or coursebook. Ravish Kumar, the well-known anchor of the country, always advises a prospective journalist to read at least 50 pages of any book daily.

Watch Web Series
A lot of good work is happening in the world of web series nowadays. OTT platforms like Netflix, Amazon Prime, Hotstar were doing well, now Voot has started working well. The recently released web series features Arshad Warsi on Voot and Sharib Hashmi's 'Asur' and Hotstar's 'Special Ops' Must Watch. I am still there for the rest of the recommendation.

Start Writing
If you write in advance then it is good and if you do not write, just give it at least 1 hour from today. Writing for a journalist is very important. If you are studying journalism or are thinking of coming to this field in future, then just start focusing on writing from today also.

Online learning is also an option
Believe me, at the time of this lockdown, you will not have to listen to the scolding for having mobile phones in hand at home. So pick up the mobile and watch the videos containing knowledge. Platforms like byju's, and UnAcademy have made a lot of their content free, and the rest is your usual companion YouTube.

Some colleges are also doing well during this lockdown. Best Mass Communication Colleges in Delhi, IAAN schoolof Mass Communication has done its entire education online. IAAN (Top best mass communication college) is probably the only Mass Communication College in Delhi. For this, proper approval has also been taken from Makhanlal Chaturvedi University. Don't worry, even if your college is not working towards online education. Read Just Chill and Blog. Stay at home and just stay at home.

Stay Home and Stay safe
