Cebu's young journalists sharpen skills in transformative workshop
A recent journalism workshop brought together student writers from across Cebu to refine their news-writing skills. The event focused on key areas like journalistic structure, factual accuracy, and the ethical responsibilities of informing the public. Participants left with a deeper understanding of the craft and its broader impact on communities. The session was led by Coach Nestor Ramirez, who oversees editorial standards and corporate affairs for the organising website. As a journalism professor, he stressed how the field shapes public perspectives and delivers information that directly affects people’s lives.
Participants shared how the workshop reshaped their views on writing. Lexie Rayn Ouano from Colegio de la Inmaculada Concepcion Inc. gained fresh insights into journalism’s structure and its power to influence opinion. Rylee Isabelle Ramoso of St. Theresa’s College of Cebu realised that strong journalism goes beyond just following a formula—it requires careful thought and precision.
Antoinette Elena Lato Ruffolo described the field as far more complex than she initially thought. She noted the many layers of responsibility involved in producing credible news. Jarred Pescadero, a student from Mactan National High School, found the experience so valuable that he would recommend the programme to other aspiring journalists.
By the end, attendees reflected on journalism as a discipline demanding both technical skill and personal integrity. The workshop reinforced that good writing isn’t just about technique—it’s about serving the public with honesty and care. The event left students with a clearer grasp of journalism’s challenges and its role in society. Many now see writing not just as a task, but as a responsibility that requires attention to detail and ethical awareness. Their feedback suggests the workshop succeeded in preparing them for the demands of real-world reporting.
