Educational Websites

Linguaryde LinguaRyde which has enormous further potential in terms of showcasing offers resources to schools and colleges across the world to learn languages.

Half of Mirrors Hall of Mirrors is a website created for a Comenius project which aims to dispel the prejudice and stereotypical imagery which young people have of each other and to make them better European citizens.

Templates and other Websites

ShowMe Broadcasting

ShowMe Broadcasting is a template created, while cursing the MSc Digital Media, for a fictitious video sharing site along the lines of YouTube except they intend the videos to be done by aspiring professionals and for them to be peer reviewed before they can appear on the site.

We Love Stuff

online platform for a video produced in MSC

We Love Stuff is a website created by Ines Amorim, Clare Messent, Luke Haas and Eduard Galindo while cursing the MSc Digital Media,to host and promote a video focus on an eclectic yet characteristic group of people and their most favourite things. It also would offer functions and tools that expand on the theme of We Love Stuff.
