For the full magazine product, the student felt they developed new skills in photo editing tools and layout techniques for the cover in Photoshop. They also explored using InDesign for the contents page instead of Photoshop to make it more suitable for the music genre. For the double page spread, the student used InDesign since it was text-based and allowed more text formatting options. In completing the magazine, the student learned how to embed presentations in Blogger, use new software like InDesign, and what content different music magazines typically include or exclude.
