NU Knight Lab

Evanston's summer movies and concerts in the parks start tomorrow cityofevanston.org/government/dep… We asked claude.ai to turn that into something you can import into your own calendar so you don't miss anything. Worked like a charm! s3.amazonaws.com/uploads.knight…

This past year, I've had students explore how AI can turn suburban newspaper journalism into niche content, delivered by AI TikTok personalities. Excited to share 4 unique AI-driven takes on the same article, showcasing our range! #AI #Journalism #TikTok @knightlab 🧵1/8

@JoeGermuska …and we loved working with @spoolermedia and the designers at iDib group to bring this to life.

This project was a great collaboration. Knight Lab's Chief Nerd, @joegermuska worked with Prof. Jerry Goldman to create the original oyez.org database of SCOTUS oral arguments, so when he brought this idea, we were excited to explore the possibilities…

Today is the 70th anniversary of the decision in Brown v. Board of Education, where the US Supreme Court found school segregation unconstitutional. Learn more about it and listen to key moments recreated with AI brown.oyez.org

Medill @KnightLab students Nora Rosenfeld (BSJ26) and Arthi Venkatesh (BSJ26) helped curate "Inescapable Truths," an exhibition about the legacy of journalist James Foley at the University Library. The exhibition is on the fourth floor of the library.

Super excited to have a chance to enhance generative-ai-newsroom.com with help from the Knight Foundation and in collaboration with @jeremygilbert news.northwestern.edu/stories/2024/0…

Congratulations to students Eugenia Cao, Elizabeth Casolo (BSJ25), Daniel Gross (BSJ25) and @janyasundar (BSJ25) for winning the 2024 @RJI Student Innovation Competition: Their @knightlab team won the $10,000 grand prize for their project. Read more: spr.ly/6016weJc2

🎉 🎊 🚀 ⚡️ 🔶 A team of Northwestern students from @MedillSchool and @NorthwesternEng won the top prize in the Reynolds Journalism Institute Student Innovation Competition, expanding upon a project first explored in the Knight Lab Studio class rjionline.org/news/novel-dat…

To help make the work more actionable, we built a design toolkit (bit.ly/NGNToolkit) so small newsrooms or small teams in large organizations can ideate ways to make tangible improvements to the stories/products they make and the platforms they publish on.

@knightlab @FtStrategies (with support from @GoogleNewsInit) launched Next-Gen-News.com, ethnographic interviews with young consumers across the US, Nigeria and India. We identified emergent behaviors, modes of consumption and what these users see as an ideal experience.

last summer i worked on human-centered design research for @knightlab in their collaboration with the @GoogleNewsInit, and the final project has finally been published! it's an in-depth look on the future of news consumption through the eyes of GenZ. next-gen-news.com

We are so excited that this research is now out in the world. Learn more at next-gen-news.com

We are kicking off a limited monthly series of free training with Google News Lab. Register today for our first session on Google Pinpoint at 10 a.m. March 5. forms.gle/SW7FgFx4b9rJB9…

Two tips @investigatewest learned during its data-driven reporting project: Focus on your data early and tap into people who have the skills you need. Read more here …ivenreporting.medill.northwestern.edu/case-studies/i…
