Student Comments:
“Overall I have enjoyed the experience of writing these blog entries and it is definitely something that I will try to continue with as it seems to be the most exciting new way for designers to showcase their work and gain support.”
“I would love to carry on with the blog for the rest of the year; I would enjoy discussing things which I stumble upon that interest me and may interest others and also share my work with other people.”

Future Developments

| The assignment will definitely continue to be used within the FSHN1200 module going forward (although with modifications), and could be transferred to other Art & Design specialisms. |
