Goodbye

This blog is now closed. The links to other blogs are still active and relevant for Media students who wish to see examples of magazine production work.

The deadline is getting closer....

We have less than 4 weeks to go and most people are making good progress. I'd like lots of you to aim for A grades, so you need to really work on those pages to make sure they're perfect! If you'd like to see some excellent blogs from last year, have a look at:

Oliver Adams-Liggins

Daisy Squire

Imogen Smith

Kath Bourne

Hannah Sharrad

Hannah Stanton Warren

All of the blogs mentioned above (plus many of the other ones) are good for a variety of reason - some have excellent pages, some have excellent research and some have very good evaluations.

Remember, to do a good evaluation you should try and use different technologies, so consider making a podcast or video of your evaluation.

Finally, the deadline is the 11th March. So go go go!

Welcome Back

Happy New Year!
Hope you all had a great holiday and have come back refreshed and ready to do some work. We are now moving on to the main task, which is to create your music magazine. For this, everything needs to be of a higher standard and you should all be aiming to get the top grades! Make sure your action plans are posted on your blog this week so that you know exactly what you need to do each lesson.
I'm looking forward to seeing some excellent final products - deadline is Friday 11th March

Weekly update

There are some great blogs this week and I am looking forward to seeing the finished magazine pages. Remember the deadline date is the 10th December (next Friday - eek!). The evaluation also needs to be complete by then, the questions are on moodle and there is a link below

Fill in a questionnaire!

It would be really nice if everyone spent about 30 minutes this week answering questionnaires and filling in polls posted by other students. It's also a chance to check out what everyone else is doing! Use the list opposite to visit each blog

Coursework 2010-2011

Welcome to all new students just starting their coursework blog. Attached to this page you'll find links to all of last year's blogs, so if you need some ideas or inspiration then have a look. To start off you need to focus completely on your student magazine. For this you need to make a front cover and a contents page. You are restricted as to what type of photograph you can use on the front cover, so make sure you refer carefully to your brief sheet.

Remember I can view your work at any time, so make sure you are well organised and keep up to date!

Finally, please make sure, if you haven't already, that you e mail me with the link to your work asap

Enjoy!!
