Difficulties accessing your blogs

I have been your trying to access blogs but am finding it difficult. Will you check your dashboard and see if you have set up some posts. I accessed some by going through your links but couldn't find some of you.

Getting Started

Hi and welcome

You've made a good start to your A Levels by choosing Media Studies. One of the first things you will have to do is start a blog. This will detail everything you do in Media. It's an online diary and it will chart your progress through the course.

You will post all your work to your blog and it will be available to the external moderator when you have completed your Foundation Portfolio.

A good blog is also very important for your A2 work (if you stay with the course). You will need to be able to write about your learning progress throughout the two years of the course in your final examination.

Good Luck and happy blogging. You may find it becomes quite addictive.
