What do I know about newsletter?

From my own understanding and reading, newsletter is a publication that is regularly distributed to the subscibers. Subsribers may be the members of the organizations or someone who is intersted with the content of the newsletter. Generally, newsletter contains one main topic of interest. For example, my group is doing newsletter for the School of Young English Learner and our newsletter is all about English Week.

Other examples of newsletters are newspapers and leaflets. I have read that nowadays, newsletters delivered electronically via email (e-Newsletters) have gained rapid acceptance for the same reasons email in general is gaining popularity over printed correspondence. General attributes of newsletters include news and upcoming events of the related organization.

During the task, I was incharged for the newsletter compilation. Thus, i have to do all the designing parts as well as rearrange and make sure that the newsletter look well-organized and attractive enough for the readers to read. As we are doing for school newsletter, our readers are the school children. At this point, it is very important to choose the contents, fonts, graphic, and colours; in order to ensure the suitability of the readers' interest.

Micheal Jackson the Assignment


I was a bit of confusing with the lesson plan format as was given in the assignment. Thus, i decided to make a full and complete lesson plan. i dont know whether this is accepted or not but by designing a completed lesson plan, it gives me satisfactions of doing this assignment. I have completed the task last night and this morning we are going to recheck each other work where we are going to polish and repair any part that what should be.

Sometimes, I just wondering why should we make the same tutorials that we used to make. I understand that the weekly assignment required us to do the tutorials as we are learning and gaining skills from new software or the software that we never used before. At this time, again, we are required to do the same tutorials that everybody has done before. It seems like the tasks that we are engaging are repeated, apart from the assignment development. Anyway, I believe that the coordinator and assignment desingner have their own objectives and rationales which must be beneficial for everyone and every task.
