Find a partner to enact the following role-play situation related to an unpaid internship for a college
Question:
Find a partner to enact the following role-play situation related to an unpaid internship for a college student at a local television station. One of the two roles is that of the college student who is seeking to gain some experience working as a news reporter at a local television station. The other role is that of the television station news manager. The person taking the role of the student devises a plan that outlines the skills that he or she hopes to learn about television news reporting from the unpaid internship. The person in the role of the television station news manager reacts to the student’s ideas in a manner consistent with how a manager would likely react if that manager had responsibility for broadcasting morning and evening local news in a manner that keeps television viewers informed of breaking news stories. The parties in both roles need to come to an agreement on the key work duties of the unpaid intern. Be prepared to report back to the class some useful approaches that a student can use to improve his or her chances of having a successful unpaid college internship.
