We integrated technologies---software, hardware, and online for this magazine project.
Software included the newest version of 'Publisher' from Mircosoft Office. We utilized this program in order to construct our individual magazine issues. In it, we added and edited photos, inserted text to our pages, etc.
Hardware includes our computer and our cameras. The computers, I used either at school or at home to do work. The camera I used, happened to be from my own cell phone. My partner might have used a professional camera, but I cannot be sure at this time.
Online technologies includes 'Blogger' by Google and any search engine on the web. The 'Blogger' allowed us to create our blog for this project and exam. It surely took some getting used to, but overall, it has been quite user friendly and my partner and I both feel it is a great way by which we could broadcast our progress to Cambridge exam graders. Best of all, there is also an app for it on my phone. Finally, Google searches online, allowed me and my partner to conduct independent research. Our research covered anything from how a magazine ought to look, to tailoring our marketing/distribution strategies to meet both the needs of a target audience and profit, while staying true to our mission of authenticity for our readers.
