In yestodays lesson we individually matched an advert to a magazine. There were no right or wrong answers but it was down to our own interpretation in what matched what, as long as we justified why we matched them up. After the starter we went over our questionnaires to see what we need to improve on. We also categorized our questions, these categories were demographic, magazine general, music magazine, freebee ect... After this lesson I felt confidant to complete my questionnaire and to give it out to a minimum of 30 people. This homework is due back in for monday 1st february.

Unfortunatly today Miss McDermott had a meeting so the class had a cover lesson with set work. This set work was to hand out my questionnaire to five of my colleagues to pilot my questionnaire, those five people were only required to evaluate my questionnaire whether it be on the presentational devices or on language mistake. Once that starter exercise was done we paired up with someone to annotate a music magazine cover. I did this annotating work with Jonny Bayliss. Our homework from todays homework was to write up what we did on our blog and as you can see I have done that.
Its 23:11pm so im off to bed :)

Why am I blogging?????

The purpose of this blog is for me to evaluate my work at the end of my media project. The media project set is to make a Music Magazine. This blogging will give me the dates i did things ( in essence a bit like a diary) so Ican evaluate quite easily :) My media class at Sponne were told by our teacher (Miss McDermott) that blogging would be a fantastic method as an electronic form.

Thumbs up to OCR

OCR are pretty cool I think, allowing us to blog our tasks and activities. From now on I will be focused on updating posts of my most recent activites, like a diary. Thanks to OCR I have a much better understanding of 'blogging' now that I'm experiencing it, this also ties in well with my other AS subject ICT.
