In this podcast episode, I interview Clement Townsend about the importance of journalism and multimedia composition in the classroom. Clement Townsend has valuable real-world experience in journalism as well as teaching and mentoring experience at the K-12 level. In this episode, he shares practical insights on how we can integrate journalism into our classroom practice. I’ve written before about how I view journalism as a class of the future and this conversation was a bold reminder to me about how journalism can improve ELA skills while also helping students develop critical soft skills.

At Clear Talk, our journey is not just about pioneering Conversational Voice AI technology; it’s about revolutionizing the way businesses communicate, one conversation at a time. Our story began not with the ambition to launch a company, but as a solution born out of necessity. Imagine overseeing a dynamic sales force of over 200 individuals, each reliant on a seamless flow of appointments, follow-ups, confirmations, and the intricate dance of re-engaging no-shows. The logistical hurdles were monumental, the need for real-time, effective communication paramount, and the traditional methods? Simply unsustainable.
