The BSc (Hons) Digital
Media Development course requires the students to develop a major project
through the use of in depth research and analysis. The most important thing is
to work on a project that I will enjoy which will therefore allow me to produce
a product/system/software etc to the best of my ability. Brainstorming ideas is
essential as I will be able to see what I am interested in these ideas can then
be discussed and narrowed down to a single one. This process will lead to
Viva’s where I will present my work progress in terms of research,
implementation and production regarding the various areas of design and code.
It is vital that as a BSc student my main focus is to develop a clean and fully
functional coded project therefore a large section of research will be learning
and understanding languages.
Before I begin to
brainstorm and perform any form of research I need to be aware of plagiarism:
In
order to make sure that I do not plagiarize any form of material it is
important that firstly I can acknowledge what is my own work and what belongs
to another author. By using other material I need to reference as much
information about the source as I can, not only to give credit to the
individual but also allow the reader to be able to locate the source itself. I
will use this blog to record my progress along with information and sources I
have used throughout. Now that I have acknowledge the importance of
plagiarism I can begin to brainstorm ideas to then be discussed and finalized
in my first tutorial.
