MEDIA TECHNOLOGIES IN

MY EVALUATION

EXAMPLES OF MEDIA TECHNOLOGIES THAT I HAVE USED

THROUGHOUT MY EVALUATION PROCESS.

PREZI

I have frequently presented my ideas through the

media of Prezi.

Prezi allows me to create quick interactive

presentations and embed them or link them to my

blog.

I found that using Prezi allowed me to answer

questions in separate points on each slide.

SLIDESHARE

Slideshare allows your to upload your own

presentations and embed them or link them to your

blog.

I found SlideShare helpful in all stages of

production as it also allows you to view other

peoples presentations and you are able to gain

ideas from other peoples work and views.

SURVEY MONKEY

I found Survey Monkey extremely helpful

when it came to getting audience feedback and

collecting all of the answers. It allowed me to

view the majority or individual answers.

FACEBOOK

When it comes to social networking I found it

extremely useful when finding people to take my

audience feedback survey.

As my target audience was people my own age I

knew that a format such as Facebook would allow me

access to a large group of people quickly that would

mainly be my focus group.

VOKI

Voki allowed me to add a fun and different

application to my blog.

If you type in some text the character of your

choice will speak it for you, I found this fun and

although it did not help my work in anyway I found it

was a varied media that I hadn’t tried before.

YOUTUBE

YouTube allowed me to find tutorial videos and

techniques when creating and planning my product.

When I began my evaluation of my work I used

YouTube to look at exemplar work and other

students work so that I could judge my own quality

of product

BLOGGER

My blog is the biggest media technology that I

have used when creating/planning/researching and

evaluating my media coursework.

It has allowed me to save my ideas as drafts and

upload images/videos and applications that add

variation to my blog uploads.

Some audience feedback was also given directly to

my blog via comments on the uploads from other

users.

CONCLUSION

In conclusion it is apparent that without many of the media

technologies that I have used I would not have been able to add

variation or indeed create most of my product.

Within the evaluation process the three biggest technologies

that I used were of course Blogger followed by SlideShare and

YouTube. These platforms are all based on social media which

allows me to share all of my ideas and upload to my blog easily.

Social media has allowed me access to information from others

for example; tutorials on YouTube and allows me to share and

help others with my own ideas.
