I am clear with what to do , I feel like my research is deep enough for me to write an essay about. I have more textual analysis, rather than internet/web research , and some of my textual analysis links to the internet. I can comfortably link my theories with what I would like to write in my CI. Now to do a very very detailed plan for my essay and linked production piece.

In relation to my research, I am confident that I have explored and singled out the appropriate texts and links (internet research) to support my CI essay. Over time I have developed enough knowledge and awareness of key issues & debates about my CI essay. This means my essay would be a strong well structured argument with highlights to answer the question to my critical investigation.

In terms of my CI investigation i am confident that my research for each of the deadlines are detailed and sophisticated in each blog post making it clear what i am focusing on. I have strong knowledge of the texts that i am focusing on and can express the wider concepts of my texts on each of the media platforms.
My essay therefore will be detailed and well structured.
