The classroom does not have exclusive claim to learning. Especially in our field, learning must take place in a larger learning laboratory. My teaching philosophy is that students learn best practicing as professionals would, with guidance and feedback along the way to help them improve. Student media, in particular, give students the opportunity to learn from both their successes and mistakes.
