Introduction
Content analysis is that tool which is used to evaluate and determine the existence of some words, concepts, and themes within certain qualitative data. By using content analysis, researchers can analyze and identify the meanings, presence, and relationship of content which is described in the weeks from 1 to 11. It provides various benefits to researchers who consider and offer valuable cultural insights over time with the assistance of the analysis of texts. The report is based on analyzing the week’s content and what is learned in these weeks also discussed.
Background
The background of the report is based upon analyzing and evaluating weekly lectures from 1 to 11 and also develops concise content analysis which is summarising the theoretical concepts that contained. In this, each week consists of four points which include important topics covered, appropriate examples, most important information about content, and what have I learned. In these weeks, different topics are discussed along with their importance (Amado, et. al., 2015). The content analysis helps in systematically examining the patterns of communication. Internet and web design learn this week which helps in increasing knowledge of learners about how to use the internet and another digital system correctly.
