My name is Chantelle. I am currently studying my 2nd year of Professional Communication at RMIT. I set up this blog for my course 'Networked Media'.

Week 3 Unlecture

August9

Sitting through this unlecture was so captivating and inspiring I actually thought we were all going to clap at the end of Adrian’s speech! I know… I’m a nerd for admitting this but I actually don’t care 🙂 I even found myself considerring being a media professional rather than a PR professional, which was what […]

Literary Machines, Theodore Holm Nelson

August8

This was my take-notes-as-I-read approach to this reading… –       How the heck am I supposed to read this? Chapter 0> Pick one of three chapter 1’s > Then chapter 2 > then another chapter one> then one of the chapter 3’s, and then there are lots of other chapters not even numbered…. What??? –       I […]

‘As we may think’, Vannevar Bush

August8

It’s not a secret that I’m not very technologically savvy… My Mum had joined MySpace and Facebook well before me (and frequently communicated with all my school friends while I was still overwhelmed by the whole idea)! So after months of contemplating purchasing a Mac computer, I finally caved. Yes, it was a really hard […]

My Top Beauty Products

August2

I absolutely LOVE reading blogs like this! So here we go… my very first attempt at a top products/ product reviews. I have broken products into categories for easy reading 🙂 HAIR batiste dry shampoo in blush… For those of you with long, unruly hair like mine, you feel my pain when it comes to taking […]

Week 2 Unlecture

August2

This time we were asked to write a question on a piece of paper to ask Adrian about the course. Panic! Could I get away with sliding it under my notebook? What is the most common question going to be? Maybe I could write that so I don’t look silly! Oh my gosh what if […]

I don’t wanna do this anymore… hang on, I kinda, really, totally do!

August2

This Tuesday morning I had decided that I wasn’t intelligent enough for the University degree that I was enrolled in, (Professional Communication). I had spent the first few hours of my day crying, convinced I would never reach my dream career aspirations. That was it, I was going to head into the city and seek […]

My favourite blog <3

July26

I first discovered YouTube makeup guru Elle Fowler in 2009, a year after she had begun ‘vlogging’ (video-blogging) video makeup tutorials, beauty product reviews and styling tips, and from then on I was obsessed, tuning in to her channel every night when I got home from school to watch her latest clip on either of […]

How I interpreted the speculative passage about Networked Media

July26

Adrians passage personifies Networked Media as a person bobbing around in a boat in a vast sea. I saw this piece as a metaphor for the subject of Networked Media. I think the easiest way to explain my interpretation is through song! No I’m kidding, I’ll just break down the phrases and tell you how I […]

Chris Argyris: Theories of Action, Double Looped Learning and Organisational Learning

July26

For me, this reading was very long and complex. I think the points made were simple enough, but the writer kept jumping back and forth between the types/ models of learning. So, in a nut-shell, here is what I took away from it: – People subconsciously follow a ‘mental map’ that they have planned out […]
