My goals for this class are just to pass. To me it is just another class closer to getting a degree, and not having to go to more school.
My anxieties are basically to start that I think blogging is a total waste of time because no one actually cares what I would have to write about, I am just doing it because it is for a class. And if they did care I would just tell them. I do not even see why someone would even care that I was blogging, because I do not think it would be interesting, unless they wanted to see me write about despising blogging.
I have taken other online classes before so I have a good amount of experience with it.
NO i do not blog because I find them a waste of time.
And NO I do not read blogs, just Failblog which is too cool to be a blog. Oh and my girlfriends blog, which I just read because it is my girlfriend's.
Jeez, Josh, you sound pretty annoyed with blogging already and here we are in the first week of class. As your instructor I find blogging a way to be more in touch with what my students are experiencing in class. Students say things in their blog that might not come up in a discussion in the class, plus I give specific blog topics which are aligned with class but not the same as the actual discussions. I hope you'll make an effort to appreciate the blog a bit more as class continues.

Hmm yes, I'm sure I will find they are not so bad. But the only thing I thought about blogs was that they were for people to share their opinions to which I had no care about.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure this will not be the case for this class, as It all pertains to this.
Sorry for being negative, It was just my first reaction to blogging in general.
