Independent NDM case study: Media Magazine research

The first research task for your New/Digital Media independent case study is to use the Media Magazine archive.

This is an invaluable resource that you have already used for your critical investigations. Now, you need to return to the archive to find any relevant articles on your chosen industry and institution.

Use our Media Magazine archive but particularly the Word document with the contents page for each issue. Bear in mind there have been some particularly good articles in recent issues released since you did your critical investigation research. Make sure you read the articles in full - as well as making notes and highlighting key quotes and statistics.

The original case study structure and task list is here - use this as a guide for your research but don't be constricted by it. Whatever relevant information you can find is going to be useful. Ultimately, you will end up with a blog post similar to your critical investigation Notes and Quotes document - and the quality and depth of this blog post will largely determine your final MEST3 exam grade.

Your initial deadline is 1,500 words on your NDM case study blog post by Monday 7 March.
