Reflection

#2
I have both positive and negative inputs about biology blogging over the semester.
My positive input is that It allowed us to be a little bit creative in our writing. We got a variety of choices of things to read and write about. Writing the posts allowed us to use our research skills and teach others about what we've learned. Writing the comments allowed us to enjoy reading what others wrote about and see what they enjoyed about our own postings. Another advantage of blogging is that you can do it right at home on the computer. You don't need to wait a day to bring home notes and textbooks because you have all the sources you need.

Some negative points on blog posting is that it's very easy to fall behind on your posts because it's not something that we're reminded of daily and used to so we often forget to post. Sometimes it was hard finding a topic intersting enough to myself that I could write a couple paragraphs on. Some people may have had a very hard time puting things into their own words. It seemed like a lot of writing for a biology class. Mostly for disadvantages of blogging was that it just became a bit annoying and repetative. Near the end was ok when you could write about personal things. It's easier to write about something you know about already.

All in all it was a cool exprience to use blogging with my classmates and learn a few things however; I don't think I would like to do it again.
