What are the pros and cons of the various research and planning strategies you used?
What are the pros and cons of the various research and planning strategies you used?
Mention the different ways in which blogging has been effective within research and also how blogging has become a negative influence in the planning stage.
Blogging was used to review real text examples and discuss conventions. Helping us to gain inspiration for suggested ideas when devising our work. Building a range of possibilities within the planning stage, which we could choose from.
When you analyse old student work and discuss marking criteria you run the risk of copying others or, conversely, looking at ideas could limit your work if you decide you don’t want to make it similar to others
Planning micro elements can set up a foundation to build your work upon but can set a certain structure which may be hard to stray away from if you feel the initial planning is not the direction in you choose to follow.
Discussing audience expectations establishes a clear view of what kind of outcome you should aim for in your final stages. What your target audience desires and also how you will do it (what response will be established).
Also it is beneficial to get peer feedback on the progress of your project and review your own progress, updating your plans and making sure you are effective in achieving your desired outcome.
