Reflection for Practical 8&9


Which evaluation criteria did you use to evaluate the multimedia websites for your “Dream Holiday”? Why?

Travel Living Channel is a travel channel to introduce audience to different parts of the scenic world. I visited this website because my family has the tendency to visit this website for information regarding traveling to European Countries. Travel Agency in Singapore does not contain many information about visiting European countries, hence, I chose to visit their website to know more about this dream holiday before going to some traveling agency in Singapore to plan it for my family and I.

Apart from past experiences of following the suggestions of Travel Living channel Guides, I evaluate this website based on its materials presented about Greek. It does not only introduce this scenic country based on words, but also includes their own photographs taken in Greek while touring the country. Moreover, they filmed their experience and Samantha Brown, their host, introduces the country well and showed us what is fun and beautiful about Greek, hence, as compared to traditional way to search for a destination, visiting travel living channel websites gives me a chance to experience a more compelling experience since the website employs multimedia resources to present their information. In addition, TLC also introduce you to different tourist attraction and note important information that tourists to Greek should take note of. Hence, I find that its content is rather complete, as a traveling guide.

Furthermore, I felt that its content is quite accurate since TLC is a globally renown traveling channel and as a result, they would not want to provide inaccurate information and tarnish their reputation. Moreover, with videos, TLC convincingly presented their experience in Greek to me and it seems that their description of Greek is fun and scenic.
