final blog
I would have to say that my writing has improved over this long, long semester. These blogs have annoyed the hell out of me and I have absolutely dreaded writing them. I have come to the long thought out conclusion though that even though I have hated just about every single blog that I’ve done, they have improved my writing not only in style but in complexity. I learned to communicate in the world of blogging and expressing my ideas with adequate information to back my character and expertise up. The multiple reading that we did, even though I never read one all the way through, helped in some way. It really wasn’t to improve my writing but rather to give expressions and ideas of what I already do in my writing. It’s nice to know what you are doing in your writing so that you can express why you chose to put down the words that you did. Back to the stinking blogs once again though. I absolutely hate the damn things. I understand that they helped us in class to express our thoughts on what we read and etc. However, we did this in class the next day. Now I know that not everyone had an opinion in class and some really never said anything in class, but if the discussions were more in depth and required more student involvement, more people may have spoken up. The essays were a very important part of the class that I strongly believed were needed for the class in order to judge and asses the improvement of the students. They were difficult but easily written if the student was knowledgeable in the subject area. They found out how much the student has been paying attention to the objectives of the class and are most of the grade[as they should be].
