- Research different blog sites and styles of blogs.
- This will not take long – you used blogs last year and know what you need - blogger/blogspot is very reliable, wix is a bit flash but temperamental, Wordpress doesn’t work on the Macs but is fine on other PCs. You can use the same platform or even the same blog as last year.
- If using the same blog address, archive your year 12 work Set up your blog and get the address to me – you have until the end of term to do this.
- First entry: statement of intent; who you are, what you are doing, what you did for last year’s coursework, what you hope to achieve through the project?
- Invite classmates to follow you – this will help you gather evidence of audience feedback
- What do existing texts in your chosen area look like?
- What elements make up a typical example?
- Do some research and add it to your blog as a short post
- Come up with an idea: NOT just for a your main task, but for the whole package
- Post your initial thoughts on your blog – you can always change them later.
This all needs to be done before the summer - DEADLINE 19th July.
