Final Blog Post

The semester is finally at an end. I really enjoyed writing on this blog. The blog was a place where I could think and write about my reflections and ideas. Blogging helped me organize my ideas before I wrote an essay which I found really helpful. By posting my ideas on my blog I was able to also receive feedback from by classmates. This was really helpful before I wrote my essays. Hearing other ideas and different perspectives on my topic helped me to collect evidence. I think blogging is a good way to express your ideas because it's different than writing an actual essay. Blogs can be a little more laid back and you can write freely without any restraints. Blogging helped me learn how to organize my writing. When I was writing my essays I had an easier time putting my paper together. The only changes I would have made when posting our blogs was if we could blog about whatever we wanted. Sometimes I had a lot of trouble reflecting on essays that I didn't really understand and I disliked. If we had more room to write what we wanted I would have blogged every day. Overall, I really liked how we were able to express our ideas online and communicate with our classmates outside of the classroom.
