In this semester, when we beginning of the management class. The professor signs every student to create a blog because we going to write several entire on our blog. Since I don’t have one and I don’t know how to create. Therefore, I was interesting to create the blog. This way could help student to learn more and communication more from each other, because we had a lot of the class activities during this semester, every activity we had to write a blog entire. So, we could go to other classmate blog to left the common on their blog and get more experience from them, which are very a good way to learn from each other. That is much better than write a regular paper. Blogging assignments bring me a lot of interesting, we had different topics. Those topics are relating to our class activities. We could express ourselves about the material we have learned and the activities we performed. I still remember what activities we did in the class, like egg planning activity, jello inventions, drawing shapes, and DISC. I am very enjoy and had fun to work with my group mate. Writing about these activities in my blog helps us to share their ideas and experience. I think the 20% of grading is enough. I never have blog before; this is my first blog that I have. But I have learned about it and used in other classes to creatively express my ideas to share in the blog. I think the blog should be an important role of this course as it should be for most other courses as well. It really gives students the opportunity to express their ideas. Also, the blog not only communicates with other students, but the opportunity to learn from them and get new ideas. I think after this course, I will continue to do the blog. Since I am not a good writer, so I try to do the best I can.
I think your writing has improved since the beginning of the semester, and I totally agree with you that this blog lets us creatively express our ideas that one normally wouldn't do in person. I think you're the only person whose blog I came across that said you would continue to keep blogging, and I actually find that interesting. Perhaps other people (like me as well) are lazy to keep blogging. =P
ReplyDeleteI agree that keeping a blog is better than writing paper though it was a bit of a hassle to remember to write a new post and comment on several classmates' blogs. The blog also allowed me to remember specifics of what happen in each class activity and it was fun to read about others' experiences with the activities or how one person's viewpoint on an event in class was very different from another person's memories of the same event. And I commend you for continuing this blog because I definitely do not have the willpower or the desire to do the same.

ReplyDeleteThe blog is a great way to express our ideas and thoughts in a creative way. It certainly does get you to think and also develop as a writer. The creative thinking can also be applied to your other classes as you mentioned and in the end help you more overall as a person than you expected first coming into this blogging world.
ReplyDeleteIt's nice to see that you really enjoyed this blog and that it helped you to get in touch with other students in the class. I, on the other hand, was not so enthusiastic about the blog as you are. But regardless, i'm glad that some students, such as yourself, found it to be an enjoyable and effective activity. Perhaps you should continue this blog? :D
