Finally Dreamweaver
This week was had its good moments and its bad moments. At the start of the week we were given our results. I was quite happy to of past two of the units in the assignments I had just done, but I was also really annoyed as I got referred on another unit for something as stupid as not checking my work properly to find stupid spelling mistakes. This made the assignment near enough unreadable. I suppose from this I have learned I have to check more than once through the assignment to make sure the assignment makes sense and is easy to read.
I also finally got stuck into Dreamweaver later that day and found out how much user friendly it is compared to FrontPage. I really enjoyed this little task as it gave me an insight in to how I am going to make sure that my sight is laid out in the correct way and everything is the right size. From this I have given my self the task of creating a homepage for my domain, which is www.jamie-wood.co.uk.
For the other assignment I was given the task of finding out about Eric Gills work and what fonts he as created for a five minute presentation later in the year which will be assessed. Also in this assignment there will be set tasks that have a short deadline on them that will be probably only a few hours long. This is to build me up to the final task of this assignment.
Something that I am really happy with was that I actually made a master time plan for the assignments to work side by side and if I keep up to date with the master time plan I will leave myself plenty of time to get all the work done and checked so I can bump up my grades from pass’ to merits or possibly distinctions.

I was happy to get started with Dreamweaver too. I did find it quite tricky to use at first but I felt that the tutorial contained in the help section really helped
I agree with the time plans we created as a group. I think it mite be worth looking at these again in the feedback groups however especially with the A6 assignment which will probably need to be changed each week.
Time Planning is a tough one this time, I didn't like the method I used in the previous assignments, so I'm hoping to pick up another method, but it has to be quick and then theres the added problem of not knowing ecactly what to plan! at the moment I'ts alot of researching for my presentation, but theres only so much you can do. although sketch books need a good going over, so these should get more attension this time. They do need too
Think on the last assignment you kept your work to yourself whlist most of us was giving our work around to other classmates to have a read through our work which is a massive help as we don't normally notice our own mistakes, however simple they are.
Don't mean to be picky but there are a few grammar issues in your blog, i.e "past" I think you mean passed?
Although you got referred, it has a positive side too because now you know to check your spelling and grammar more next time.
