It has been an interesting
journey throughout this 14 weeks of study for this subject Issues in Publication
and Design. In the blink of an eye, the 14 weeks study duration has finally
come to an end, thank you Ms. Jenny for the unconditional support and guidance
along the way. Blogging is a platform for most of the people to record things
that happen around them or express their own feeling, it may sound casual to us
initially but after learning it in depth, I discovered that there are so many
different aspects that we need to take note in order to achieve effective
communication. From the most fundamental step of doing research to find
relevant information , I learned that it is important to understand the culture
of the audiences I am getting in touch with. Schriver (1997) stated that the
meaning of an article text can have different meaning from one culture to
another it could be humorous for one but offensive on the other. Beside the
written text, I have added in element such as pictures and other graphic
elements on my blog to ensure that it is multimodally articulated and its layout
suits the reading preference of my readers. Walsh (2006) claimed that multimodally
articulated text helps strengthening the message intended to convey. Last but
not least, a big thank you for my fellow friends who guided me and also to
those who left you footprint here.
