Blogging for UCLan journalism course's 'Digital newsroom' module

I am a 20-year-old student in the second year of a BA (Hons) Journalism module at the University of Central Lancashire (UCLan) and this blog is part of my work for the Digital Journalism module on the course and beyond that.

There are several subjects that can be expected to be covered on this blog. Firstly, being a journalism student, I will be blogging about aspects of journalism in general. This could be the quality of reporting, expectations of tabloid newspapers compared with broadsheets, and my thoughts on anything journalism.

More specifically, I have been put into a group for the purposes of my assignment and given the subject of sport to write about and will be giving analysis of issues and articles in relation to contemporary sport news, as well as my own viewpoint.

The other people in my group are covering Health (Sarah Anou), Politics (Danielle Boothroyd, http://www.danielleboothroyd.blogspot.com/), and Entertainment (Kay Taylor, http://www.kaytaylordigitalnewsroom.blogspot.com/).

Expect some interesting analysis to come.
