Hindi sapat na naririnig mo ang sinasabi. Kailangan mong maunawaan ito.

Ang journalist ay hindi lamang nakikinig; nagpo-process, nag-aanalyze, at nagko-connect ng impormasyon. Kapag may nagsasalita, makinig muna bago magsalita, at kapag may hindi malinaw, magtanong. Huwag maging tagasunod ng salita; maging tagasuri ng impormasyon.

Kapag video o audio material ang ibinigay na data source, listen, process, and clarify. Samahan mo pa ito ng note taking skill. Dahil hindi na uulitin ang video. That’s a test of listening comprehension.

Kapag press conference ang pagkukuhanan mo ng datos, listen, ask, and verify. Hindi sapat na nakikinig ka lang. Kapag may hindi malinaw sa iyong napakinggan, clarify. Kapag may inconsistencies sa information, verify. Huwag kang mahiyang magtanong. Dahil ang isang active listener, mapanuri at analytical.

Sa instructions, listen carefully because every detail matters. Ang tamang pagsunod sa instructions ay basic skill. Hindi na dapat ito inuulit. Dapat itong naiintindihan. Nauunawaan.

Reception skill ang listening. Lahat ng napakinggan mo ay mai-dedeposito sa iyong utak. Ipunin mo ito. At sabayan ng mahusay na note taking dahil ang iyong notes ang iyong resibo.

Listen with comprehension. Write with precision.

Pagdating sa actual contest, presto, ready ka nang mag-withdraw sa iyong memorya at sa iyong notes. At sa loob lamang ng 45 minuto tapos na ang iyong artikulo.

Hintayin na lang lang kita sa dulo.

At doon ko isasabit ang iyong medalyang ginto.

Journalist ka, β€˜di ba?

Kaya dapat may note ka. At may pen ka.

Note-taking is not a new skill. Grade 1 ka pa lang, hinahasa ka na rito. Nung Grade 1 ka nga yung mataba at maitim na lapis pa ang gamit mo. Tapos, nag Mongol ka na nung Grade 2. Yung kulay yellow. Pag naubos ang eraser, β€˜dilpat-dilpat” na lang at ikuskos sa papel. Presto! Tagos hanggang puso. Or kung wala ka na talagang mahanapang eraser, yung pinakadulo ng tsinelas na lang ang gamit mo.

Pagsampa mo ng Grade 3, sinimulan ka ng tinuruan ng cursive. Yung magkatabi ang malaki at ang anak nitong maliit na letra. Tapos, ang pinakamahirap mong isulat, yung letter Q. Then you connected the letters. Maala mo pa ba yun?

Ang sipag mo pang magsulat noon. Nakailang palo rin ang natanggap mo nang sinulatan mo ang bagong pinturang pader ng bahay nio. At ang buong notebook mo punong puno ng pirma mo. May maiksi. May mahaba.

Ngayon, gamitin mo na ang iyong writing and note taking skills.
Makinig.
Mag-observe.
Mag-isip.
Magsulat.

Dahil ang isang mahusay na journalist ay hindi lang marunong makinig sa kuwento. Marunong siyang kumuha ng kuwento bago pa ito mawala.

Sa campus journalism, hindi lang utak ang iyong puhunan. May kwaderno kang kakampi at panulat na sandata. At oo, isa sa mga unang skills na hinahasa sa journalism ang note-taking.
Kaya, please lang. Huwag mong ilagay lahat sa utak mo. Baka ma-overload. Hindi puwedeng puro β€œOkay, tatandaan ko β€˜yan.” Hindi rin puwedeng umasa lang sa memory.

Isulat mo.

Sa notebook.Sa iyong campus press note. Kahit hindi maganda ang sulat mo. Ang mahalaga, maiintindihan mo pag binalikan mo.
Sa Opening Ceremonies? Makinig ka. Pero magsulat ka rin. Hindi puwedeng nakikinig ka lang habang nagsasalita ang mga panauhin.
Isulat mo ang mahahalagang mensahe.

Mga pangalan.
Mga numero.
Mga pahayag.
Mga detalye.
Mga kuwento.
Mga linyang puwedeng maging lead o angle ng iyong article.

Dahil baka mamaya…
β€œWala akong naisulat.”
Tapos ang dahilan?
β€œWala naman kasing sinabi.”
Journalist, hindi puwede β€˜yan.

Think about history. Nalaman natin ang tungkol sa mga sinaunang kabihasnan hindi lang dahil sa mga relic at artifact. May mga simbolong iniwan at isinulat. May mga tekstong nagkuwento tungkol sa kanilang buhay. May papyrus. May mga dokumento. May mga liham ni Rizal.

Nakasulat. Napanatili. Naipasa sa susunod na henerasyon.
Kaya tandaan mo: Ang naisulat ngayon, maaaring maging kuwento bukas. At baka ang notes mo sa DSPC ngayon ang maging bahagi ng sarili mong journalism journey balang araw.

Hindi kailangang maganda. Kailangang mayroon.
Kung gusto mong mabilis mong ma-retrieve ang impormasyon: Magsulat ka. Hindi lahat matatandaan mo. Kaya kung mahalaga isulat mo.

Alam kong may sarili kang technique sa note-taking. Congrats! Alam ko rin na minsan mas gusto mong mag-record na lang. Tapos sasabihin mo: β€œMamaya ko na lang papakinggan.” Ay, journalist…DSPC β€˜to. Hindi podcast replay session. At hindi ito pinapayagan β€˜yan sa contest proper.

Kaya habang nangyayari ang kuwento, kunin mo ang impormasyon.

At ang pinakamabilis mong kasama?
Note. Pen. Ikaw.
KAYA, MAGSULAT KA!
Kaya sa DSPC…
Notebook? CHECK.
Pen? CHECK.
Journalist mindset? CHECK.

At kung gusto mong mag-iwan ng marka sa DSPC…

MAGSULAT KA!
