Spend some time viewing your partner’s blog: reading the content, viewing the graphics, exploring the links, etc. Then answer the following questions to help your partner improve his/her blog.
Remember to be kindly critical and honest.
1. What do you think is the strongest part of
the blog? This could be a certain post, the writing style, the graphic design,
the use of alternative media, the images, etc. What makes this element so
strong?
I really like the photos sam has used throughout his blog because they are personal to simon and they make the blog more colourful and interesting to look at. I also liked the way sam wrote his first post = http://simonofrwanda.blogspot.co.uk/2013/09/my-london-adventure.html. His writing style made me believe he was actually Simon because not all his grammar is correct and he is quite naive which relates to the character well. I also really like the background because it relates to childhood which he lost at such a young age.
2. Is there a part of the blog you find confusing? A part that doesn’t seem to quite match the rest or the character for which it was designed? A link for which you don’t understand the connection? Can you give some suggestions for how to improve that part?
The blog is very clear and everything relates back to Simon. I dont think think he should change anything he has done so far. But he needs to remember when he adds more to his blog that everything he posts is relevant.

3. After reading the blog, what would you like
to know more about? Is there a post that leaves you with questions? Write down
at least two questions to help your partner further develop this blog.
What does simon do on his weekends?
What is his first impression on Alex and Joseph?
How did he survive the genocide?

4.
Did you notice any major misspellings or
grammatical issues? Please note down anything.
Sam has alot of grammatical issues and misspellings throughout his blog but I know he did it on purpose in order to show that because simon isnt english he sometimes has difficulty with the english language.

5. Did your partner fulfil all the requirements on the Character Blog Requirements handout?

- A link to a video
- More research
