Planning, Reading 02

 

Firstly the video on the information cycle was very interesting, if not a bit weird due to the youtubers strange voices and behaviour. The way information flows from by the second news to by the month studies to by the years books and back again is very interesting, however the video never actually tells us how information from books made years later passes into the news cycle again, therefore I looked it up and found it is less of a cycle and more of a linear path, strange that it is recognised as a cycle yet I digress.

Our other reading task and main reading task this week is to begin planning our research for the project, we as a group (Me, Eoghan, Leon, Aaron and Luke) have discussed the possible ways we can research and follow the modules instructions to secure things such as a "Search Strategy" and more.

PART A:
