EVALUATION- QUESTION 4

4. How did you use new media technologies in the construction and research, planning and evaluation stages?
I have used a lot of technology throughout my coursework to enhance my products. I have used both Apple mac computers and Windows 7 software to create my coursework.

In researching my products, I have used:
-YouTube
-Google
-Other blogs
-Powerpoint to collate my research
-Facebook
-Wikipedia
-Newspaper websites

In constructing my products, I have used:
-Photoshop CS3 to edit my images
-InDesign CS3 to create my newspaper and poster
-Font Websites such as Dafont.com
-iPhone 4 to take my images
-iPhoto to download my images
-iWeb application to develop my web pages
-Cyberduck application to make my web pages live
-Scanner to scan in elements of my poster

In planning my products, I have used:
-InDesign to draw up flat plans
-Other blogs to gain inspiration
-Other websites/newspapers to gain inspiration

In evaluating my products I have used:
-Powerpoint
-Slideshare
-Text to audio converter
-Word

Overall this year I have developed new skills in previously used software such as Photoshop and InDesign, as well as learning new skills on programmes such as iWeb.

My project this year has used much more creative technology than last year, and I think this is demonstrated by the quality of my final products. I have really enjoyed discovering and experimenting with these new programmes and software and I am very pleased with the coursework I have produced.

My Website

I have made my web pages live on the college intranet.
They can be found at the following address:
http://intranet.southdowns.ac.uk/studentweb/a2media/30045125/Home_Page.html

The first article headline contains the link to my second web page.

Finished Hyperlinked Page

I have now finished my hyperlinked page and I am really happy with how it looks. I can see how my skills on iWeb have developed.. I finished the web page for my article in an hour, whereas the home page took me several lessons! When creating my hyperlinked page, I made a few changes to my home page, like the shade of blue in the navigation bar at the top. I think it looks much better now, and is more coherent with the blue of my newspaper.
