Reflections.

Readers, I have finally reached the end of my journey with IPD. This is my first attempt of having an academic blog, which I think it is quite interesting to build this weblog. Upon completing this weblog, a load research needs to be done to complete and support my analysis of media and publishing issues.

From this subject, I have learnt several rules and guidelines that need to be considered when publishing documents through a weblog, how to apply the conventions to stick on the audience, purpose and context. To write an academic purpose blogs, author must provide references and acknowledgment to the content, so that readers will find it credible articles. I can know apply essential aspects in creating a document, such as framing, salience and the information value (Kress &van Leeuwen, 1998). I have also learned that cultural and situation context play and influential role in the meaning-making process as suggested by Walsh (2006).

Conclusively, this assignment had imparted knowledge that will help me in the future. It had been pleasure to learn this subject and to be a part of this course.
