do this are in the Handbook.
You can add references (citations and a Bibliography) to
show where you got the ideas, you can add hyperlinks to the
text to link your blogs, you can add important details and
explanation in the appendices (so important blogs can be
cut and pasted, journal extracts, other pieces of evidence to
illustrate practice. Send this for feedback from your tutor

you can also add audio-visual and visual files to
