Final Reflection

The blogs that I did in this class were very helpful to me. I think that the biggest help that it gave me was it helped me to stay organized. Instead of just having a bunch of random information, I was able to write them down in the form of a blog that enabled me to reference them in the future when I needed them for the paper I was writing. The blogs also helped to enhance my writing skills more than just simply writing an essay. Rather than having to be proper and formal in my writing all the time, it allowed me to write more personally and really get into the things I was writing about.

The entries for the final project are the ones that I am most proud of writing this year. I felt that I was able to utilize the blog to its full potential and use it the way it was designed to be used. It also showed me how using hyperlinks to bookmark the articles I need was important and how well it allowed me to be organized. I was able to simply go back to my blog and connect instantly to the website rather than having to look all over the place to find the exact article again. I think that the blogs could be more effective if students were giving a more specific rubric to follow when writing on them. It was hard for me to write when there was such a broad range to write about. Changing this would make the blogs more interesting and the effort to do them would be greater.
