Last assignment!...

Advantages and disadvantages of using a blog on classroom.

After doing blog’s work for about a year, I think that it’s important to think carefully about it. First of all I think that I’ve got the enough experience to talk about this topic, not only for my experience, but from what I’ve seen in my companions. I believe that it has been a very good experience in many ways, but in other ways it’s more complicated.

I’ll begin with the good things that I find in this experience. First of all, I’d never had a blog on my life before, so it was very good for me as experience this work, besides I think that you can share a lot of things in a blog, and maybe you can reflect more than in other instances, as a fotolog for example, because in there it doesn’t matter very much what you write because almost nobody reads it. For other side I believe that sharing experiences and “tastes” with other companions has been very good to know each other a little more, and when you don’t understand very much what you had to do in an assignment you could read someone else work, an use it as a guide. Besides it’s very good for us to train our writing in English and I think that this is a very good way to do that, because you can correct your text in a program or in word, and that may help to write even better. Other important think it’s that we could finish them in our houses.

One of the bad things that I can find in this way of working, it’s many times I’ve working for many time in the lab and our time finished, so my work remained in the middle and I couldn’t finish it in my house, because sometimes I didn’t have time to send it to me, or internet didn’t worked (this happened sometimes in the first term of the year), and the times that I could send it to me I wasn’t able to finish it in my house because I didn’t remember in what was I thinking in the time that I wrote it, so I had to do it all over again, and sometimes it was frustrating.

But finally I think that it has many more positive things than negatives, so I believe it to be a very good experience, and I hope that it’ll be repeated for the next generation.

I’m sad this is the last assignment, thanks for all, Take care a lot! bye
