Content Curation in Journalism. Indicators and Good Practices

Abstract

This article presents a method or system for the analysis and evaluation of content curation in digital media. The system is based on two dimensions (Content and Curation) that group a series of parameters and indicators to which a score has been assigned. The following elements are indicated for each parameter: definition, explanation, procedure and examples. The “procedure” element is defended as a methodology to assess the use of content curation on a journalistic website, which includes a list of indicators, and an analysis question and a score for each of them. The “examples” element presents a set of good practices for content curation in digital media.
