Student blog content ideas

So I've written an article about why you should own your own blog as a student, but now I'm here to give you some tips and inspiration on what kind of content to write! Of course, it depends on what type of blog you are aiming for and what topics you'd like to talk about, but here are some general ideas!


1. News content 

This is especially relevant if you'd like to pursue a career in journalism or a related field. Perhaps gather up some newsworthy content and write about it. Maybe your favourite band has released a new album and talk about how great (or maybe not so great) it is. Maybe an interesting news story has come up and you'd like to give your opinion on it. Also, bonus points if you can write unique pieces that no one else may have written, and be sure to put a creative spin on pieces that you write!

You could also interview some people that have an interesting story to tell whilst reporting any news!

2. What's it like to be a student? 

Maybe you want to give advice to fellow students or starting students. Perhaps what it's like to be an international or mature student. Or, you could talk about what you enjoy about being a student or what a day is like for you. Can you recommend some stationary or useful websites? It could really help others students out there and show off your writing skills.

3. Experiences 

Is there a time when you went out with your friends and had an amazing time that you can positively talk about? Did you travel a lot in your gap year or did you overcome some challenges? I think experience posts are interesting, especially when your audience can relate to them.

4. Recipes 

Are there some quick and easy recipes you could publish to help other students or anyone who has some spare time on their hands at the moment? You don't have to be a professional but putting out some recipes could help and inspire many students - I know I would've needed them!

5. Talk about your goals and professional experiences 

Think about a list of things you'd love to achieve this year or talk about how you felt lost on your career path and managed to pick yourself back up. Maybe talk about a work placement you really enjoyed and what you did/ found so enjoyable. It will be really great to look back at these posts in the future :)

Profile Interview: A life of a successful physics professor

Photo by  Ivy Barn  on  Unsplash Sat comfortably in the quiet dining room of my small village house, professor of medical physics, Angela Newing describes how wonderful her career journey has been and the privileges she has had along the way. She speaks in a tone that instantly hints the hard work and dedication she has put into her career along the years, mostly looking down at the table and taking herself back to the very beginning. Now living in Stroud, Gloucestershire, she tells me about working in a time when women were perhaps not encouraged to enter the world of science. Born in London during the war, Newing had an enjoyable childhood with her older brother who claims with laughter and pride that she did "everything better than him." They were inseparable. This was the start of Newing's drive and determination to lead a successful career in medical physics. "I think my first memory in Woburn, and I was fairly tiny, was when we arrived at the back d...

First person Feature: My Bullying Story and how I made it through

Secondary school is usually labelled as the “best years of your life” and a time where you learn about yourself and what you are capable of for the future. This was certainly not the experience I had, and I certainly would not give what I experienced in the early stages of school a positive label. The bottom line is that I went through years of hating myself due to persistent bullying in secondary school. Of course, none of this was going to help me to become who I truly wanted to be in the future, but it did make me stronger. Every day I would be faced with name calling. I would walk through a busy playing field on my way to my next lesson and within seconds, I would hear loud voices, sneering and laughing coming from behind buildings and before I knew it, I would be surrounded by people. I felt so helpless and I never really knew which way to turn. I would not be spoken to or sat next to in class because I was 'too ugly' and 'nobody liked me'. I felt res...

A Letter to my School Bullies/ 11-15 Year Old Self

"Just know that you did not fully break me" Dear bullies, Remember me? I can't believe I haven't been in touch with you to say this yet, but now its time. I struggle to know how you sleep at night, knowing the unbearable pain you caused to an innocent little girl for all those years. I just want to start off by making it clear that you have actually improved my future. Thanks to you, I've been able to work harder, inspire people, inspire myself and my friends and family. I have not been afraid to say no to opportunities that you could probably only dream of. I have become courageous, strong, and a person that you quite frankly will NEVER be. The light that you stole from that young girl has now returned and I am better and happier than I've ever been before. I'm not sure what you were hoping to achieve from the persistent laughing, name- calling, death threats and sick jokes you drowning me in, but I have created so much positivity from this like yo...
