Blog feedback and learner response

 

What is your strongest piece of work?

 Reading an image - media codes blog tasks. The analysis of that blog post is the highest i did and i feel proud of the description.



What is your weakest? 

i personally don't think that their is a weakest as the ones that are "weaker" then the others just simply didn't require that much effort so it wouldn't be fair if i said they were weak.




What specific skills or knowledge do you need to develop over the rest of the course?

The media can portray her in so many ways: as a fashion icon, a royal, or a mom. 3) Summarise the section 'The how, who and why of media representation' in 50 words.
