Classes for media students have begun in the capital in a new format as part of the "School Day at the Museum" project. Students are completing pre-professional internships at Moscow museums. During the classes, they explore exhibits and complete assignments: filming videos, taking photographs, writing articles, and also trying out roles as camera operators, PR managers, and journalists. This was reported by the press service of the Moscow museum. Department of Education and Science.

"The new class format allows schoolchildren to apply the skills they learned in the media production technology course in practice. This not only expands their knowledge but also makes learning more interactive. Currently, media practice is being implemented at five Moscow venues: the State Sports Museum, the State Central Cinema Museum, the Kuskovo Estate Museum, the Dedushkin Attic Museum of Radio and Television, and the Vladimir Vysotsky Museum," the department's press service reported.

For example, the media internship at the State Central Cinema Museum offers students the opportunity to gain skills in directing, photography and videography, scriptwriting, and reviewing. Participants are divided into teams based on their interests: while some focus on directing and staging, others shoot and edit videos, and still others prepare reviews and presentations to promote their creative ideas.

At the Vladimir Vysotsky State Museum, high school students are mastering the art of documentary filmmaking and learning to write blog posts, podcasts, and essays. One of the group assignments is a real journalistic investigation comparing Vladimir Vysotsky's portrayal of Hamlet with the bard's own life.

During classes at the State Sports Museum, students in media classes take on the roles of sports journalists. They film stories about exhibits, write about great athletes, and develop a content plan for the museum's social media. And at the Kuskovo Estate Museum, students are developing merchandise, filming video reviews, conducting photo quests, and designing estate tours for teenagers.
