Overview
Throughout the Blogging and writing for online audiences course from the University of Cambridge you will analyse the diverse blogging styles out there, discovering what works - and what doesn't. We will also cover things that tie into blogging such as social media, sponsored posts, crowdfunding, SEO and affiliate schemes. Students will develop their own blogging approach and be able to (hopefully!) avoid any potential pitfalls.
By studying this week, the students should have:
- become familiar with navigating around the Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) and from VLE to links and back
- test your ability to access files and the web conferencing software and sort out any problems with the help of the Technology Enhanced Learning team
- learn how to look for, assess and reference internet resources
- contribute to a discussion forum to introduce yourself to other students and discuss why you are interested in the course and what you hope to get out of your studies
