Abstract

In 2019 the Mid-Atlantic Athletic Conference signed an agreement with ESPN to stream men’s and women’s basketball games on its affiliated streaming service. In response, the Manhattan College Communication Department developed a Sports Media Production program to teach undergraduate students the basics of live sports production. The goal was for undergraduate students to participate in the production of forty games per year, including shooting, editing, generating replays, inserting graphics, and mixing five tracks of audio. Over the past three years approximately eighty students have taken part in these live productions, with audiences ranging from several hundred to ten thousand. This paper will explore the successes and challenges of developing a program of instruction out of a public/private partnership. Through the implementation of Vygotsky’s Scaffolding theory, students are immersed in both learning and teaching production from the moment each new season begins, while simultaneously exploring significant issues in Sport and Media Studies as part of the curriculum.

为ESPN制作大学体育节目:维果茨基式方法

2019年，中大西洋体育大会与ESPN签署了一项协议，在其附属流媒体服务上播放男子和女子篮球比赛。作为回应，曼哈顿学院传播系开发了一个体育媒体制作项目，教授本科生现场体育制作的基础知识。目标是让本科生每年参与40个游戏的制作，包括拍摄、编辑、生成回放、插入图形和混合5个音频轨道。在过去的三年里，大约有80名学生参加了这些现场演出，观众从几百到一万不等。本文将探讨在公私合作的基础上开发教学项目的成功与挑战。通过维果茨基的脚手架理论的实施，学生们从每个新赛季开始的那一刻就沉浸在学习和教学中，同时探索体育和媒体研究中的重要问题，作为课程的一部分。
