The beginning of the course I did not know exactly what to expect. As with most of my classes I expected the typical routine write a paper and do discussions class. My expectations were far from what I got from the course. This course was way more intuitive than I expected it to be and I’m glad for that. The class expected more out of you than what I got from other classes I have taken so far. Some of the key things about this course that was different than the others that I have taken was the blogging aspect. The blogging was kind of like a graded journal assignment to me and it was great. In other classes you don’t really get that outlet to just free type and explain your outlook at what the week brought to you. In this class we had more than enough opportunity to express our feelings towards the week’s material.
Blogging was never something I expected to do or had the desire to do but it was fun as I was doing it. Like previously stated it was like a journal and it helped me actually grasp what I learned in that particular week. The first post I made I was not really sure exactly what to write or how I was supposed to write it. As I’m writing the last one for the course it is beginning to be easy for me to just jot down what is on my mind as it pertains to the course. My creativity with blogging has not grown much since the beginning of the course but I feel that my writing has improved. I have never been the one to be creative in design or anything in that nature, but I think I did an alright job. Now that this is the last of the blogs it is bittersweet, and I may continue to do this on my own in other courses. This has helped me with information retention and i will take what was introduced to me in this class and implement it in my other classes.
I hope everyone finishes their program strong and good luck to everyone!!
