Marika had a similar opinion to myself, in that the blogging assignment was something we weren't sure of at first, but started liking after we gave it a shot. Blogging was something we would not want to have missed out on; next year sophomores should be able to try it out. I thought her suggestion for being able to propose prompts was great, and could bring a new wave of excitement to the project.
Hey Marika!
You have a similar opinion to mine of this year's blogging experience. It came off as a little lame when I heard about it, but did form as a good self expression when implemented. You mention being able to suggest prompts? I love this idea but was wondering if you had any specifically in mind when you wrote this. Was there anything you wanted to write about or in a different style you didn't have a chance to?
Good job! - Alyssa Z
I also commented on Kate H's blog. I found her's extremely interesting, for my biggest disadvantage to the blogs was her favorite part. It made me wonder if there was any way to find a compromise, or other solution so those who want to be heard can, but those who don't will be happy. Her other points were otherwise similar to mine, which made the one difference stick out even more.
Kate -
Although we do agree that overall blogging was a good experience, and even that it took a little bit of a time to figure out a balance in pretty words and deep thinking (I put much more thought into the rhythm of my words than content at the beginning), we disagree when it comes to 'being heard.' That was one of the more negative aspects for me because I didn't want to come of as 'stupid' or unintelligent. I see your point, but do you have any suggestions that would meet both of us half way?
Great ideas -Alyssa
