All the way round when doing this weblog, I had come across a lot of document designs and writting as well as structure items. When doing a posting, appropriate and relevant pictures should have included, so that it could help the readers to understand what is going on. According to Kress and van Leeuwen (2006, p.23) the new visual literacy should have the language together with image side by side to show the audience. Thus, I did apply this theory in my blog whereby showing some visual pictures as well as graphs and charts in order to make the blog easy to understand by the readers.
Moreover, when doing the writing part, highly concern on the citation and reference. Once get the information from the others website as well as ideas from others people. For instance, referring to Blood (2002) stated that linking to referenced material allows readers to judge for themselves the accuracy and insightfulness of your statements.
Last but not least, some of the design in the blog is also important. A blog design must be readability by making sure the background and foreground colours chosen have sufficient contrast to make the text easy to read. Moreover, line-spacing for paragraphs make longer blocks in order for readers easy to read. (Urban 2009)
