'MULTIMEDIA'???

The term multimedia is used frequently in discussing how/what to blog to get into the high marks band. You're partially marked on the 'level of care in the presentation' and 'use of ICT' within your blogs. What does this mean? Multimedia = a combination of images, hyperlinks, podcasts, videos, vodcasts, links lists and other blog tools, use of Facebook/YouTube et al for audience feedback/research/marketing etc. Level of care means taking time to appropriately illustrate posts, find useful hyperlinks to include [generally make a phrase into a hyperlink; don't just type 'here is a link:'!], and checking your links work, images have been properly embedded (always: save and upload, never copy/paste or drag in), posts don't have massive gaps/white space (if you place a lot of images in a post it can take some tweaking!). I try to apply these principles. Make your blogs at least as good as this one!

F6 closed P1-2-3 Fri 21st Jan

Its Yr11 Taster Day tomorrow...remember that?! So, F6 is closed to all AS/A2 periods1, 2 and 3, and there will be NO Media classes tomorrow. Remember, I'll be marking your blogs on Sunday (contingent on much time it takes to mark AS), so make good use of the freed up time! You can work in F6 from lunchtime on tomorrow.
