Sat 29 - Looking Forward to Week 2

Image
Hi All, I hope that you have had an enjoyable first-week blogging. I realise that it is a new approach for most of you and that's why this week it has been very casual. A couple of pointers: try reading your blog out loud  after writing - it will improve the quality re-read how to deal with image captions, title names, and tags make sure you have completed all parts of the declaration before taking the quiz As always ask me if you're unsure!

That's the first week nearly over well done! A few things to consider over the next few days: This blog is only for Multimedia Development - if you can post only as part of the task that would be great!  Very important to only complete the declaration(QUIZ) after completing the task- read the declaration very carefully before completing the Quiz.

If your unsure  Ask ME  that what I'm here for. We might have difficulties in relation to Unity next week as it hasn't been upload to the labs. If you have a computer/laptop

Delighted that as you work through your tasks your sending me emails to ask relevant questions- if more than two of you ask a question I will post a general response here so everyone can benefit from it. Honesty Image   One point I would like to make is that some of you have completed the declarations but haven't completed the tasks, that's fine this week as we work out what we need to do but starting next week this will be dealt with through our Honesty Policy if your unsure ask me!
