This class was a good learning experience for me. As a journalism major I decided to take multimedia as a minor because of the shift to writing on the web. Everything I've learned about writing on the web throughout the semester I intend on using in the future.
A lot of the assignments we did in class do apply to my future career as a writer. All of the writing experience has been good, from writing the social media case study and now turning it in to a speech to blogging each week. Creating the LinkedIn account will also be useful to me.
My favorite part about the semester was probably attending the BMA event. I think it was an awesome chance to meet professionals in the media business. I learned a lot at the event not only about my resume but how to present myself in job interviews.
Some other parts of the class that I enjoyed were creating the news letter for Team Wendy and making the Facebook FanPage.
Blogging was new to me at the beginning of the semester and I enjoyed reading all of the different classmates' blogs, but if I had to choose one it would be Jim Schwartz's Blog, because it was well written with great links.

I also am I Journalism Major (broadcast) but decided to get a minor in multimedia for obvious reasons. I think the blogging will help me out a ton when I graduate. And like you, I really enjoyed the BMA Event. I was great to meet people but also to get some feedback on your resume and interviewing skills.
ReplyDeleteI also enjoyed the BMA event, i got alot of great feedback on my resume. the Newsletter for Team Wendy was also a great assignment because it was a real life organization and i think that being able to write newsletters will be a beneficial skill for the future.
