Institute of Continuing Education (ICE)

The world of blogging has never been more accessible, nor more complex - nor more rewarding. This course will help students develop the wide range of skills needed to become sustainable, safe and ethical bloggers. We will analyse the diverse blogging styles out there, discovering what works - and what doesn't. We will also cover things that tie into blogging such as social media, sponsored posts, crowdfunding, SEO and affiliate schemes. Students will develop their own blogging approach and be able to (hopefully!) avoid any potential pitfalls.
