Changes to my study programme

When they ask me about anything that I would change to my career, that is Journalism, I always think that one of the most necessary changes is related to the faculty facilities. For example, I think that the amount of radio and television studios is not enough for all the students from Icei so the infrastructure could be improved; I also believe that technological equipment like microphones, video and photo cameras, voice records and many others should be more. We really need this equipment to do our work and not all of the students can pay for them since they are very expensive so I think that the faculty should have them.

Another change I would do is about the workload. This year I have felt in many occasions that time in the class room is not well used and we have to do a lot of work, besides to study for a test, at home. I know our career is getting more practical and less theoretical with the time, but maybe we should have more facilities and have more time during the day to report, filming our reportages and documentaries, taking photos, etc. I remember have to film a short documentary and have to cancel some interviews or shooting sessions for coming to a class where we didn’t do anything really important. I imagine that for film students this situation must be worse. I know all classes are important, but there are times where we have to prioritize some activities.
