News University (NewsU) Archival Collection

News University is/was the e-learning experiment at The Poynter Institute.  The project was funded in 2003 by the Knight Foundation, initially for five years.  Later the foundation gave funding for another five years so Poynter could grow the opportunities for journalists around the work to improve their skills with online or digital courses. This site has some of the more important memos and reports in the Poynter / NewsU memos section. These files are some of the “nuts and bolts” memos and other documents during the life of NewsU. There maybe some duplication between sections.
