Week 1- Tute 10-12 SB

SHANE'S NCT BLOG FOR WEEK 1

How's it goin,
Welcome to my first blog for my New Communication Technologies (which will from now be referred to as NCT) course. My name is Shane Bailey, I'm 17, Born in Campbelltown, Sydney and moved to Tweed Heads when I was around 9-10 (can't remember exactly). I'm studying a bachelor of Journalism at GU GC campus. Journalism has always interested me, especially the field of sport's Journalism. I'm Doing 4 courses in my first year, first semester, these being (Effective Writing, NCT, intro to Marketing & Writing for the Web). I'm settling in to uni pretty well, even though the bus trip from tweed and back is a bit of a hassle. I'm finding each course to be very intriguing, the most intriguing of them being NCT (sucking up a tad).

Since we will need to be reflecting on the issues and such arising from the NCT lectures, Tutorials and the readings, I may as well start reflecting a bit on week 1. First lecture for NCT was last week, It was one of the best lectures of the week, Aprof. Stockwell is very interesting, his booming voice reminds me of my old Software teacher in high school. I'm pretty happy with the assignments involved with NCT compared to other courses I'm doing. I've read the first 4 chapters of the textboook. It's pretty interesting, but i'll have to read them again for them to sink in.

Lastly I'll talk about my interests. I enjoy Sport (League, cricket & NFL), Film, TV, Video games & reading. I'll most likely give a better blog in coming weeks since It's my first, and also My actual first blog wasn't saved for some silly reason (my mistake probably).

Till Next week,
Cheerio.
