Evaluation – Comments and mark out of 14/20
Question 1 – answered proficiently using prezi. Answered using real products to
back up points.
Question 2 – answered proficiently using a youtube video. The question has been
answered well but could benefit from comparison to examples from bands of the
same genre.
Question 3 – answered using wordle, analysis of a focus group and a podcast.
Would have been nice to see some evidence from the focus group, but analysed
well. The podcast features the candidate and another candidate discussing audience
feedback well but then focus shifts on problems that could not be changed. Also
focuses slightly more on the second candidate.
Question 4 – answered proficiently using a collage a prezi. You could have split the
editing software up to provide more information on each one.
Overall a proficient evaluation. All questions fully answered using a variety of
technologies.
