The document discusses various technologies the author has learned to use while constructing coursework projects, including Blogger, Photoshop, Prezi, and SlideShare. Blogger helped the author organize coursework by creating blog posts to gather and store research. Photoshop was used to design a magazine cover by creating a background and editing images and text. Prezi allowed adding images and text in a creative layout for blog posts. SlideShare was used to display PowerPoint presentations on the author's blog by uploading files and copying the hyperlink.

1. What have you learnt about
technologies from the process of
constructing this product?

2. What I have learnt I show to use blogger.
To begin my media course work we were
introduced to Blogger. This is a page
where you can create you own blog you
can set up different posts in which you
can put pictures and information in.
Once you have put in all your information,
pictures and filled your posts you can then
view the blog to see what it would look like
completed.
Blogger has helped me to
organise and keep on top
of my course work. It has
helped me gather and
store information and
research that I have
concluded and has helped
me over all with my final
planning of my designs.

3. Music magazine
Using Photoshop helped me to create my magazine and being
able to use this impacted on how well my cover page would
turn out. By learning how to use this programme I feel my
cover page has improved a lot from making my college
magazine cover age at the beginning of the year. I used
Photoshop to create the cover of my magazine. I firstly created
my background using a brush technique from the brush tool
on Photoshop and then choosing different colours. I then cut
around my image so it would sit onto my background. I edited
my image and then added all the text onto my cover page and
then added the skyline and advertising banner to the top and
bottom on my cover magazine page. I then created the union
jack and plus sign using shapes and cutting around the final
shape to make it a circle and plus sign. I finally added the
barcode.

4. I have learnt how to use
Prezi by setting up a page
and putting writing and
pictures onto it. I was
introduce to Prezi which
helped me to make my blog
posts more creative. You can
add images and text onto a
Prezi post which makes a
more exciting layout from
posts which are then put
onto our blog. This has
helped me to make my blog
work more exciting adding a
new fun way to present my
work.

5. Firstly I had to set up my page and ensure I had 3
sets of guide lines so I could line up my pictures
and text ingot them to ensure my magazine
contents age was straight. I would then start to
add text, advertising banners and skylines to my
content page. I then added my text and page
numbers and added my photos and made sure
they ad page numbers and quotes onto them so
people could identify who they were and on what
page they could find them. To add the top and
bottom red boxes I used the shape tool, chose the
box tool I then drew my shape double clicked the
shape and chose the colour selection then picked
my colour. This helped me to get a more
professional finish to my magazine.

6. To display the power points I had made onto my blog I used a programme called slide
share. You make an account and then click upload, you then choose your PowerPoint or
word document file and click ok. You then copy and paste the final hyperlink and put that
onto your blog.
