Blogging

1. What do you like or dislike about keeping a blog for this course?
I think keeping a blog for this class is a creative and fun way of posting assignments, although blogging really just isn't my thing.


2. How can keeping a blog make you a more effective teacher?
It is using new ideas and getting the students involved with technology for media literacy.


3. Will you consider continuing to post to your blog after this course is over? Why? Probably not, only because I post for assignments and once class is over I won't really need to anymore, although I do think that one day once I become a teacher that it could be something I could use in the classroom.


4. Keeping a blog helps you develop four new media literacies:
-Give me a concrete example of how blogging in this class is evidence of your abilities to do one of these four new media literacies:
I feel that one of the big things that we could use in our blogging is Collective Intelligence, the ability to share knowledge and compare notes with each other toward a common goal. I think that sometimes if there is an assignment that is posted and one person is not sure how to do it, if another person has already posted their assignment it could be a big help and they can get an idea on what to do from that. Therefore we are sharing notes with one another and both are trying to reach that common goal of completing an assignment.
