1. What have you learned
from your audience
feedback?
Eloise Clark
2. In order for me to understand how effective my work was,
I set out to gain some information on what people thought
of the product and the final product.
I did this because I wanted to know if I had made my
newspaper appealing enough for people to buy.
3. I started by setting up some questions I wanted to ask
people:
1.) Do you like reading newspapers?
2.) How often do you read your local newspaper?
3.) What do you like to see in your local newspaper?
4.) What do you want to see less of in your local
newspaper?
4. I used Facebook to get answers to my questions – this
way I had access to a range of people of different ages.
5. After gaining this information I was able to get a better
understanding of what people wanted to see in a local
newspaper:
• Positive things about schools and children
• Local News
• Charity
This then inspired my article topics, as well as the style of the
newspaper and the adverts included.
I put together a
rough layout
and then
started making
my newspaper
6. I then posted my final products on Facebook again to gain
feedback on what I had created to see if it looked like a
professional piece of work.
Most the comments I got were positive. The layout, use of
colour, pictures and the articles were highly praised. People
also liked the use of adverts
Some points were raised that my newspaper is too positive
as I only had one article that was a little bit negative but not a
serious issue.
After I created my final piece, I did not change much even
after the feedback I gained as it was mostly positive. I did not
change the tone of my articles as I thought it could be
something that would appear later on in the newspaper (if I
had created more pages).
