Research: Skills Audit



Since studying media at AS, I feel that my research skills have improved vastly; therefore, I am able to conduct researches productively and efficiently now in comparison to my previous research methods during the AS coursework. During my AS coursework, I would often find the quickest way to carry out my research into thrillers – using Wikipedia, Google and teacher's resources. However, this was very tedious and unproductive as it only helped me receive an overall view, rather than an in-depth detailed view. I now use a variety of sources to do my research, such as YouTube, magazines, social media and other online sites.
My skills for researching have improved greatly as I know what websites to look at and where to get my information from. I am able to use different types of technology more efficiently as I am more experienced now after using them at AS.

A lot of the technology I used at AS it was my first time using but now I've had practice and I'm better at it and can use things much more efficiently than just doing the basic because I didn't know how to use them.
