I am moving all the teaching resources to the journalism sub-domain (http://journalism.winchester.ac.uk). Also the the teaching plans and timetables will be moved on to this domain, along with the registers/blog pages. The current year one blogs of course will soon become year two.
To find the year one (soon to be year two) blogs simply go to the sub-domain (http://journalism.winchester.ac.uk and navigate to 'BA Journalism' and then to 'Student Blogs'. It is very easier to find - much easier I think than the old coursesite.
If you forget the URl for the journalism sub-domain do not worry, just put in the search term 'BA Journalism Winchester' and it will take you there.
From now on this messageboard will be just that - a messageboard. I've removed the front page log-in for posting messages because it distorted the page and made it look very confusing.
By September everything will be in 'one place' on the journalism sub-domain, and this will be less confusing than the system of having some material on the coursesite and other material on the Learning Network; and duplication. This reorganisation is a big job, so bare with me.
The new first years will start blogging when they front up in September. We will revive the the second year blogs (soon to be third years) who will be keen to do this if they want to have any chance of getting a job. This page is sort of like a blog from the lecturers. We can interact by lecturers posting things here (and elsewhere on the sub-domain) and students reacting - or adding material - on their blogs; and vice-versa.
As things are moved over from the Learning Network and the old coursesite I will leave a message on the LN and also will leave a notice hear. Once this tidying up process is finished things will be much easier to understand - not that they are too bad at the moment.
To post a message (staff only) go to http://www.virtualnewsroom.co.uk/joomla2/administrator/ and log in with your username and password. You then just use the 'add article' button. This is actually easier to use than the old system.
