Communicating via Blogs

I think blogging as a communication tool for the class was very interesting and innovative idea. It gave me a chance to know my classmates without speaking to them face to face. I am usually a shy person when talking to classmates and getting to know them. Most of the time I usually only get to know the classmates when I participate in group projects with them. Blogging gave me a new perspective on the activities we worked o. It gave me a chance to know that my group was not the only ones that were having difficulty with the activity given. It also showed me how others planned their activities out that gave them success. For me, I think blogging was a great way to learn from others outside of the classroom. Blogging also gave me a sense of time management. When Professor Kurpis gives us an assignment and deadline, it's the same as if my boss gave me an assignment with a deadline to finish the assignment. By commenting on others, it's like your boss telling you that you have to send documents to other companies at a certain time. It gave a sort of hands on expeience. I think this was a great way of taking charge of 20% of our grade for the class. Even though this was a great assignment for a class, I sadly won't keep writing in this blog after the end of this class because I have a lot to do for my part-time job and doing class full-time.

I agree that we can know how others planned their activities out and gave them success via the blog. Blog is a great tool to extend the communicating after class. We can know more about the classmate after class.
