Student Reporter Leader
Each group includes a Student Reporter Leader, who serves as a student coordinator to help organize submissions, facilitate discussions, and support the team’s overall workflow. The Student Reporter Group Leader is selected by NIF based on the student’s interest in taking on a leadership role, their level of participation, and the overall quality and maturity of their writing.

The role is designed as a learning-based leadership opportunity in a supportive group setting, helping students practice collaboration, communication, and responsibility. Working in three-week content cycles, the group leader reads peers’ articles, helps organize and recommend pieces for further discussion, shares simple feedback with teammates, and gathers all submissions for review by the NIF supervising teacher. Final editing and publication decisions are always made by NIF, allowing group leaders to focus on learning how to lead and support others in a positive, low-pressure environment.
Are you interested in being considered for a Student Reporter Leader role in the future?*
