Techniques

Some of the techniques I will be using in this blog are: scanning, file transfer, file formatting, uploading materials, imported materials, sourced materials, stored materials from different documents.

Scanning is storing a product (a picture, poster) digitally so you can't lose it, I can show this by scanning a poster for a place that I will talk about.
File transfer is an act of transmitting files between computers over the internet.
File formatting is the form of which you store specific types of information digitally. I shall do this by making sure I have a backup of my work and publishing it to this blog.
Uploading materials is when you post your content and work or pictures on a social media network or a blog.
Imported materials are materials or data received to one programme from another.
Sourced materials are original or basic materials used in research.
Stored materials are materials saved or stored in a certain way so that you can access it later.
