Personal Reflection

Throughout the course, I have gained knowledge in delivering my opinions and thoughts with the use of ‘Blog’. Blog was one of the successes by web 2.0, where it serves public the freedom of speech (Franciso and Penalvo, 2008, p. 215). It has given me an opportunity to exercise my critical thinking and to express them in various aspects of news, in which that one would have limitation in the olden days.

I also learnt that it is vital to have the combination of texts and images to clearly deliver ones message. According to Walsh (2006), texts and images convey different effects. However, if both are place together, they will rectify a statement clearer (Schriver, 1997).

Too, I have learnt to produce an effective layout and design, which is also important in exercising an effective blog.

In conclusion, the course had enhanced me to understand the importance of different issues in publication and design.
