Reflections

When I first decided to enroll into this course, I did not expect that I will be taught about what goes behind the publication industry and the theories that made all the advancements possible in only my first semester into the program.

Prior to this subject, I have always been intrigued about how all the reading materials I've been collecting and consuming all these years found its way in our hands and on our computer screens. I was really enlightened after reading the works of Kress and van Leeuwen, Stephen Bernhardt, Maureen Walsh and a few other theoretical readings that I had to go through in this subject.

I was rather delighted when given the task to write a series of blog posts regarding the current issues in publication and design because as tech enthusiast, this assignment gave me an opportunity to work closely with my passion for technology and my interest in modern and contemporary publishing.

What I hope to achieve when I started to work on this assignment was to further expand my knowledge and understanding in publication, and really have a grasp about the issues that surround it with the help of my lecturer, classmates and all the required readings. Ending this assignment on a satisfactory note, I believe I did just that.
