MPI-104 Assessment 3

Hey guys!...

So it is almost coming to an end of my First semester of my first year. And my class of MPI-104 is almost over!!..

So this post is about what I’ve done and what I’ve learnt within my MPI-104 class.

So in my blogger I have fiddled around with quite a few templates throughout the semester deciding on what to do for my blog and how to set it out. The Default backgrounds for blogger were ok but not what I really wanted then when customizing with my own images I found it a challenge to make it so that things were easy to read and the background didn’t distract from that.  By adding extra elements like a counter and RSS feed that I learnt how to do it had added to customisation.
Overall blogger has been pretty interesting to learn about and use for this semester.

Flickr has helped me a lot this term with my animation and photography stuff and posting on my class’s forum. It was easy enough to understand from the start and the different folders I made helped me distinguish what class is what. I learned the importance of tagging images and if I didn’t not create them personally (which I did) to source where I got it from. I found looking through other peoples photos really interesting and inspiring with some of their creations that they made themselves.
Flicker was probably my favourite social networking site to work on this semester apart from only being able to add very small videos and not many it has been a great experience

What can I say about delicious. I learnt how it is easier to keep track of the sites I visit if they are all put into one stack. The importance of tagging all my links with tags. I found that looking through groups stacks were very interesting seeing some of the websites and links other people visit like digital art and photography. So overall while I would not normally use delicious outside my class like I would with the others I still understand the importance of it and why it is popular.

I have also tried to link all my pages together by continuously blogging about my other social media sites. I learnt for people to be interested in things that there must be a break between paragraphs

MPI-104 –
So overall within my mpi104 class important things I have learnt are;
Importance of original customization
Importance of tagging
Importance of the different social media
Importance of sourcing work if it isn’t original
Importance of creating links to go to other pages
Importance of HTML and CSS coding

And
