%X Journalism as a field has been revolutionized toward online, interactive, and immersive storytelling experiences. Multimedia storytelling requires adaptive journalists who are always learning new skills. While many universities utilize student-led news organizations to train students, this article explores the added value of a journalism class website to further encourage students to develop their multimedia skills. It shows how Eric Newton¡¯s teaching hospital vision can be brought to the classroom in clinic form by smaller, liberal arts colleges. This two-part case study showcases how a class website can spur deeper reporting and multidimensional storytelling at the introductory and senior levels
