I. REASON FOR CHOOSING THE TOPIC
During the subsidy period, loudspeakers were an important means of
communication to promptly inform people in urgent cases. But with the flow of
time and the flourishing development of advanced technology, the birth of mass
media has largely lost the position and role of loudspeakers in modern life.
It is not clear exactly at what specific time, in many localities, complaints about
noise from loudspeakers began to appear. At first it was just an inconvenience in
the residential communities, but gradually, the loudspeaker and its "noise" became
a problem that made the whole society pay attention; many people even posed the
question, "Is the speaker still necessary in the present time, when the majority of
the public is accessing information through digital media?"
What loudspeakers did in the past can now be easily expressed through new
techniques that are both convenient and modern. But one thing can be affirmed,
loudspeakers, when placed in a special locality such as rural areas, have not yet
been developed or are not played at the right time. For example, the peak period of
the use of ward loudspeakers to warn and propagate measures to prevent and
control the epidemic has promoted their true role, and that fact also proves that
loudspeakers are still a useful communication tool.
One thing cannot be denied: loudspeakers used to have their historical place,
especially during the war-subsidy period, loudspeakers hanging all over the village
and all over the street were always "companions" with everyone. More than the
fact that the loudspeaker is a means of communication, it is also an image 2
associated with the development of Vietnamese media and an object that preserves
the traditional appearance of the Vietnamese nation.
The story that Hanoi strives to bring the loudspeaker to each village, residential
group, etc. by 2025 still attracts a great deal of attention from the people of the
capital. Grasping the troubled psychology of many people, we decided to choose
the loudspeaker to become the central topic to exploit, as well as to be able to give
the public a clearer view of the loudspeaker and about its use and also the
"annoying" that it brings with the theme name: "Loa truyen thanh: Nen “ton tai” hay “khai tu”?"
II. THE EXECUTION PROCESS 1. Topic selection: -

IV.DIFFICULTIES, CHALLENGES AND WAYS TO OVERCOME
1. Difficulties, challenges
In order to prepare the product in the best possible way, group 5 tried to come up
with many creative ideas, research the topic carefully, and elaborate in each stage
of video processing. In addition, my team also encountered many difficulties and
shortcomings in the process of implementing the product. 4
Firstly, perhaps because of the desire to produce a product that makes a special
impression on the viewer's perception, the team researched and selected the topic
"Speaker Ward: Should "survive" or "death"'. However, according to the evaluation
team, this is a difficult topic, and there are currently not many research products
and videos on this topic. Finding documents to learn and refer to during the
production process is a challenge for us.
Secondly, in the process of making a product, the selection and search of locations
and filming scenes are extremely important and necessary. However, this is also
the problem that the group faces. At present, some localities no longer use
loudspeakers as a means of communication, it is quite rare to find places where
they still use and exist ward speakers for product implementation. The team tried to
find out and choose a few filming points but still had a bit of difficulty in terms of
time, not convenient for moving and commuting.
Third, finding interviewees is also one of the difficulties that we need to face.
Because this is a practical topic, our team need to contact many people from the
officials in charge to the people to help make the group's product meaningful and
thoughtful. However, in the process of contacting, some characters were still
afraid, refusing to answer interviews, making the product implementation not smooth. 2. How to fix it
With some of the above difficulties, group 5 tried to find a way to overcome it so
as not to affect the product implementation process, contributing to the perfect product.
First of all, with the challenge of choosing a topic with few video products, we
have overcome it by researching from articles or news articles that have been
written on this topic. Although there are not many documents, but with a bit of
knowledge, my team will try to do well, meticulously in each stage of product
implementation and hope to receive an objective review from readers.
Next, in terms of finding locations and filming scenes, the team searched and
found out that a few places still use loudspeakers as a tool to transmit information.
Although the locations were quite far away, and it was not convenient to move,
group 5 planned, allotted a specific time, divided into several days of filming and 5
assigned tasks to each member of the team in charge. Since then, the group has
also solved and partially overcome the above difficulties.
Finally, facing the challenge of finding characters for the product, we have been
constantly trying, persevering and persuading the staff in charge of the ward
speakers so that they can help the group. With some people still afraid to interview,
refuse to cooperate, the group tried to contact and get opinions from relatives and
friends around, but still ensure the authenticity and absolute objectivity of the product.
With many measures to overcome mentioned above, our team wishes to be able to
improve some of the difficulties and be able to produce a satisfactory product,
elaborate and meticulous in each stage of implementation.

MEMBERS’ FEEDBACK ON THE COURSE 1. Cao Dang Chau Anh
The subject of audio and video for online newspapers is an indispensable part of
the specialized knowledge of students of online newspapers. This is an important
subject that helps students have the most opportunities to learn, apply and practice
social knowledge. Mastering this knowledge will help students after graduation be
able to adapt to real work more effectively.
The valuable experiences that I myself have learned after experiencing and
practicing the subject "Audio and images for online newspapers" is a way to help
me absorb social knowledge effectively. This subject provides students with basic
knowledge about the concept of press images, images and sounds for online
newspapers, the role of images and sounds in online newspapers, psychological
characteristics of communication. Receiving images from readers, different types
of images in online newspapers, how to choose sounds for online newspapers... I
believe that this knowledge will help me increase my adaptability to real work. economy after graduation. 7
After studying and practicing the subject "Audio and Image for Online
Journalism", all students have learned a lot of valuable knowledge and have a
better understanding of this subject. This makes it possible for us to apply the
knowledge in practice correctly. In particular, each student also learned how to
create a photo album or product video by performing the steps of preparation,
audio and video processing, ideation and scene preparation.
In the process of studying and practicing the subject, I have learned a lot of useful
knowledge. However, the most impressive thing for me was the practical lesson
"Photo Story" taught by lecturer Vu The Cuong. This helped me better understand
how to create a story with just pictures and sounds, and how they can evoke
emotions and make a deep impression on viewers. I learned how to choose an
image angle and portray a story with themes, ideas or meanings. I also understand
how to choose the right sound to enhance the vibrancy and feel of the story. In
summary, this course has helped me equip myself with the necessary knowledge
and skills to be able to perform audio and visual products professionally and effectively.
In addition to the useful knowledge learned and practiced in the subject of Audio
and Image for Online Newspapers, students also practice many personal skills.
They learn how to work as a team, listen and contribute ideas effectively to achieve
common goals. In addition, students also learned many lessons on personal
working skills, self-construction of ideas, refining products and putting themselves
in the position of viewers to create quality products. In general, the course Audio
and Image for Online Journalism brings many benefits to Journalism students,
helping them equip them with necessary skills and experience for their future jobs. 2. Dinh Cong Hoang Anh - Overview of the course
"Sound and Image for Electronic Journalism" is one of the most important courses
in the process of learning and training process for students majoring in Electronic
Journalism at CLC. Especially, apart from words, sound and images are crucial
tools for conveying information to journalists and readers. Through this course, I
have had a deeper insight into sound, images, and how professional journalists
utilize these tools in their journalistic products. Furthermore, via the course, by
using the knowledge passed on by teachers, the students can be applied to practical
exercises in the process of learning this course. 8 - Course details:
In terms of knowledge, the course called "Sound and Image for Electronic
Journalism" has helped me have a clearer understanding of the ways to convey
information and feelings through journalistic products. This is very important in
the digital technology and internet era where everyone owns a smart electronic
device such as a smartphone or laptop, making journalism not just about words but
also about sound and images. Maximizing the use of technology in the process of
creating journalistic products is very important for future journalists.
About the teaching method, this was a completely new teaching method that I had
never encountered before. When it comes to the atmosphere of the class, instead of
considering it as a class where the teacher will pass on the knowledge and the
students will note down every sing word, Mr. Cuong always tried to make the
classes a place where he can share his experiences related to the process of creating
journalistic products. As a result, he successfully created a comfortable space
where students were encouraged to share and not feel restricted as in a regular
classroom, thereby stimulating students' curiosity. In addition, regularly doing
exercises and receiving detailed feedback from the lecturer helped students absorb
knowledge more quickly without relying too much on textbooks. Moreover, with
the limitation of using difficult words, my classmates and I could comprehend all
the things he passed on without facing any struggle. Especially, for me, via this
course, I could enhance my soft skills since I can work with my classmates in order
to prepare the presentation and create a journalistic product, as well as time
management skills so I would never miss the deadline of the assignments in the future.
About the method of practicing, through fair and objective evaluation methods, the
lecturer accurately assessed the students' abilities through practical exercises. In
addition, I also agree with evaluating students based on their positive attitude and
contributions to building the exercise. -
Positive Points and Limitations of the Course:
Firstly, about the positive points of the course, one of the most impressive classes
for me was the conversation with journalist Thi Uyen. As a young journalist who
had fought in Ho Chi Minh City during the tense period of the Covid-19 pandemic,
she shared her experiences and knowledge about sound and image in journalistic
products. After watching and listening to her talk about the process of creating the
work "CON HEM NHO", as a result, I was very impressed by the enthusiasm and 9
bravery of a young journalist. Moreover, this is also one of the best press works
that I have ever seen. As a young person who accesses social media daily, instead
of being exposed to misleading and distorted information during the Covid-19
pandemic in 2021, after contemplating this project, I wondered why I did not get to
see it earlier. Through this sharing session, I was deeply moved to be introduced to
a type of journalism that combines sound, images, and writing in a harmonious
way. All of these elements combined harmoniously to create a work that has an impact on readers.
Moreover, in terms of the limitations of the course, I long to attend more classes
and have the course extended so that we can understand more about the knowledge
of the course. In addition, being able to discuss and express our own opinions with
the teacher has somewhat helped me broaden my knowledge and worldview. - In conclusion:
It can be said that this has been the most interesting course since I became a
student at the Academy of Journalism and Communication. I would like to
sincerely thank Mr. Vu The Cuong, who has led and introduced new teaching
methods for young people like my classmates and me. 3. Duong Minh Anh
