Identifying my Identity

This week I was much happier with the content that I produced. I took on board the comments about having headings on my blog and made them work this week – compared to previous weeks where I think they interrupted the flow of the blog. My main focus of improvement this week was making sure that all of the infographics/multi-media I put on my blog were self-created. While I managed to achieve this, I only used infographics and a power-point presentation. Continue reading →

Who Are You Online?

The development of social media sometimes makes it hard to distinguish between your professional and personal life. And the idea of avoiding social media all together nowadays is unrealistic and potentially disadvantageous to an individual.

Make News Great Again

This week I feel like the content I produced, compared to other weeks, was not up to scratch. I couldn’t get my head around how to approach the topic of ‘Fake News’ and I think that that is evident from this week’s blog post and the poor structuring of it. I tried to take on board comments from last week’s feedback about having headings, and while I agree that headings are a good idea I think the implementation of them made the flow of my blog suffer.

Divide and Conquer? NO, Conquer the Divide.

This week it was crazy to see how much everybody upped their game on their blogs, so many more self-made graphics and well researched posts!  I feel that I have steadily continued the persona on my blog  from last week and enjoy the colloquial stance that I am taking. I received four comments on my blog this week – this was really nice to see, and made me feel people were appreciating my content which makes writing the post feel worthwhile. Continue reading →
