This is not your normal, "my day, my roommates, my car" sucks kind of blog. Above all, by the end of the semester, you should have created a blog that will show a potential employer that you have the skills to be successful in a mass media career.
That means you need to think about your topic carefully. Do some research. How many movie review blogs does the Web need? What unique perspective can you offer? Do you have an unusual hobby? Have you overcome a problem that you could provide useful advice for? You need a topic that allows you to produce 20 posts, some of which will be multimedia. Again, always keep in mind that your goal is to make an impression on someone in a position to hire you for a job.
When you decide on a topic, then you also need to know who is most likely going to be interested in reading your blog. You should tailor your posts to that specific audience. And, as you are planning your fine content, you also need to be learning all that there is to know about how Blogger works as this knowledge will translate into other applications and technology skills.
Happy blogging, everyone. I can't wait to read your blogs.
This is such a great and fun idea to start a portfolio. I can't wait to think of an idea and turn it into a full fledged project.
ReplyDeleteThis blog is very true when discussing topics that are most commonly used but may not be the most interesting. People don't want to hear about the boring things. I am excited to begin posting my ideas and I hope they are subjects worth reading.
ReplyDeleteThis is going to be fun! I have thought of doing a blog in the past, and now I finally get to do that, and get credit for it! It's going to be a great semester!
ReplyDeleteThis is a good idea to master the knowledge both in the field of Mass Media and some other fields.And do some research by ourselves can improve the self-learning ability.
ReplyDeleteI am really looking forward to working on this blog project! I like to do a variety of hobbies, and it will be interesting to choose a topic that I have a passion for, particularly one that allows me to share my knowledge with others.
ReplyDeleteIm really looking forward to this project this semester! The idea that I get to talk about a topic that I'm passionate about really excites me.
ReplyDeleteThis is my first time blogging, so I'm a little iffy about doing it. But, hopefully it'll be fun! I've never really followed any blogs either, except maybe Tumblr (if that's considered a blog).

ReplyDeleteAs someone who has been blogging for a while now, I am very excited to create a new and different blog about one specific topic. The hardest thing with this has been trying to detect that sparkle of originality that I want this blog topic to have. It has made me think long and hard about my hobbies and passions and what I have experience with that makes me stand out from others. I'm anxious and ready to get started!
ReplyDeleteI have never blogged before, but I have researched it. This will be an interesting experience that I hope helps me with my administrative duties as well as coaching gymnastics in 2015.
ReplyDeleteWell I have no blogging experience but, I consider new challenges like this an important way to build character and learn more about myself. I have a strong feeling that this will encourage me in applying critical thought in my current and future endeavors.
ReplyDeleteI'm actually looking forward to this project, I have always wanted to create a blog but never really got around to doing it. I hope that this will improve my writing and thinking skills.
ReplyDeleteFortunately, I had opportunities to exercise my writing chops last semester weekly. To be honest, I've never composed a blog before. What better way to further strengthen my writing skills and to express my creative freedom than to blog! Looking forward to it.
