HACKATHON: Build news-credibility tools with The Texas Tribune & ISOJ

Since 1999, journalists, media executives and scholars from around the world have had an annual meeting in Austin, Texas to discuss the impact of the digital revolution on  journalism. The International Symposium on Online Journalism is a program of the Knight Center for Journalism in the Americas at the University of Texas at Austin, a unique conference that bridges the gap between academia and the news industry.Contact isoj@austin.utexas.edu with any questions.

International Symposium on Online Journalism

WE HAVE REACHED CAPACITY. REGISTRATION IS NOW CLOSED. 
Calling all developers, designers, researchers, news junkies and more. On Thursday, April 11, The Texas Tribune, Walmart Tech ATX, Microsoft News and the Knight Center for Journalism in the Americas will be holding a hackathon centered on building tools to measure and boost trust in news. You'll form cross-disciplinary teams and, after a day of collaboration and coding, present your tool or concept to a panel of judges. Come for the chance to win our grand prize, but stay for the company of others at the intersection of journalism and technology. Breakfast, lunch and snacks provided. The Hackathon is being held in timing with the Knight Center's International Symposium on Online Journalism (<A HREF="http://isoj.org" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">ISOJ</A>), which will take place April 12-13 at the University of Texas at Austin's Blanton Museum of Art.
