This note of reflection not only marks the end of this course, but also the end of the journey I endured as an undergraduate student. Although I have blogged prior to the commencement of this course, I did so with little knowledge about theories and principles of designs. Today, as I stand at the end of this phase, I can bravely say the the immense knowledge gathered from COMM 1043 have changed my perception on the area of publication and design.
I have understood the need to have proper knowledge on audience, purpose and context in order to be able to communicate effectively. Apart from that, I have also learnt about the compositions of salience, framing and layouts and how these elements help enhance readability (Kress and van Leeuwen 2006).
This course also asserts that each medium has its own affordance that could be beneficial if capitalized in the right manner (Schriver 1997). When designing this blog, I have also managed to put into practice some of the theories I have learnt such as the use of hyperlinks to provide easy navigation (Nielsen 2000).
