Progress of your blogs

Your teachers are busy looking through your blogs and will be feeding back to you about how well you are doing.  We will also be encouraging you to set yourself targets to improve your blogs further. 

What we are looking for is plenty of blogging outside the blogging checklist - much more so than at AS.  When you see something on MTV or on Youtube that inspires you then blog about it; When you see something in the press about music videos or artists from a similar genre to one that you are working in then blog about it.  We are also looking for lots and lots of analysis and detail in your blogs, and so it's really important that you plan what you are going to write about before you do it.  

What is also super important is using a variety of different pieces of 'ICT' in your blogs:  remember that there must be some sort of visual element to each of your blog posts - not just a text blog.  Think about using Prezi, slide-share, camtasia, vlogs, screen-grabs (and annotated screen-grabs), embedded videos, links, jpegs, photobucket/flickr (and many many more!). 

Remember that workshop is open every lunchtime (room 323) for you to come along and catch up with your blogging work.

Good luck!
