Time table for improvement on my subjects and time management

During my lesson today I was able to create a time table to improve the amount   of work I put in throughout the course of my week. By doing this I will be able to meet deadlines more efficiently and this will also help me to Focus down on subjects that I have been struggling with and also be able to tally up any missed sessions and how I can make up for those missed sesssions

Start of the criteria Grid

During my lesson I was given the task of creating a criteria grid with some of the information that I had gathered over a period of time about what necessary conventions that I would need to have in my own magazine. The main conventions that I have had pop up constantly were the ones that are present. Based on my results I decided to circle out a few of the main things that I will indefinitely need for my magazine as I find this to be most affective and its also common to have these conventions in a magazine, e.g. mast head barcode main image Double page spread. I wouldn't really be able to call it a magazine if I didn't necessarily have these conventions present within it.

Trading magazines with peers

Over the week I was able to swop magazines with one of my peers which I found incredibly useful as it enabled me to save money but also I have a vast range of options with my peers and the different genres of magazines that they have. Some have rock magazines some have Jazz magazines and some don't.  I know that music magazines aren't generally a popular thing right now so it sort of hard to come across them but by exchanging magazines with peers I find it quite useful.

Small issue that i had over the past couple of days

Over the past couple of days I forgot the password for my Gmail account which resulted in me not being able to publish any work. 4 days ago after contacting Google and getting in contact with their Team I was able to recover my account. Once I did recover my account I then tried to upload the shots of the magazines that I had taken of the front cover contents page double page spread but I didn't realize that everything was on HTML so that it wouldn't come up as an the image. Once speaking to my peers Sam Williams he helped me to recover my images back to Compose format which then resulted in me being able to get the images back but there are still some difficulties that I have had trying to get the analysis's done.

My survey analysis

The responses from my survey


Today I was able to complete my survey and get my responses. I had a peer stand next to me and hold my surveys and by doing this I thought that it would be better if I was able to prove that I actually went out and found people to complete my survey rather than forging my results and faking anything that I had presumably gotten.
