Reflect

It's now time to reflect on what I've learnt in IPD. It's been a challenge, I admit. I'm not particularly fond of always using technology and basing all my assignments on terms that go whoosh over my head and methods where I zone out after hearing step 1. But it's been fun too, learning new things and trying new ways of doing things.



Issues in Publication and Design - I love the name though :) I think it's a very good subject to take if you want to get a broader view of the world and the role media plays in it. My scope has been widened indefinitely and without a doubt it's thanks to all those gruelling hours in front of a screen, typing monotonously till your fingers feel like dropping. As they always say, no pain, no gain.

The current platform on which media stands in society today is fast enlarging, both in height and width, and I think that the media will continue to play a significant role in the trends and norms of our communities we live in. There are so many grey areas though, ones where debate would be highly desired for the sake of opinion-sharing. IPD has taught me that the media is not all about fun and games after all, and there actually is a big, scary world out there.
