Good introduction Brianna to the role of research in journalism. To develop this you could add more detail about the important of engaging your audience e.g. through social media and how research can be invaluable. As an extension activity you could do some research into demographics and ways in which media producers segment and categorise their audiences. In your assessment of Google as a research tool, you could talk more specifically about why for journalists specifically Google has advantages and disadvantages. You have illustrated your points about social media as a research tool with some excellently chosen examples. Excellent evaluation of primary and secondary sources in relation to journalism. Very good comparative analysis of the skills required by bloggers, print radio journalists and journalists. Your research plan reflects a good understanding of the purpose of primary and secondary research sources. 
2.1
Critically compare a range of primary and secondary research sources.
As above
3.1
Apply design and research tools, methods and skills to record and interpret information and develop ideas for creative production. 
Brianna, well done. You have conducted primary and secondary research for your interactive poster on vegan dining in Sheffield. I would like to have seen more links to sources of secondary information and perhaps more evidence of engaging with your audience in order to gather more detailed information. I understand you gathered personal views from facebook? You should have put in more evidence of the results from that activity. You could also have added technical research you conducted for the production of your interactive poster.
3.2
Evaluate the effectiveness of design and research tools methods and skills. 
You have said that your primary research  could have been more effective. You could suggest alternative methods for gathering primary research. How could you have gathered more qualitative data? With regard to your point about vegan fast food, you should have made reference to your target audience. Who was your target audience and, if they were young people, would that make gathering information on fast food more appropriate? Overall, more detailed evaluation was required.
Well done. You have passed the unit!
