Blog Assignment

Well, it was my first time writing a blog so it was definitely a new experience. Overall, I did enjoy writing a blog and always found myself excited to read other people's comments on my blog. However, there were times I found it annoying. I did not like the fact that I was required to comment on other people's blog because sometimes I really did not have anything to say about their blog entries but had to write something because it was required. I mean, commenting on other people's blog makes me read about their views and opinions but not everyone puts an interesting entries. I think the professor should just suggest students to comment on each other's blog instead of making it as one of requirements. This way students will comment on each other's blog more naturally and won't feel forced. I did feel benefited from meeting other class mates online and felt that I got to know them more. There are about 80 of us and it is hard to get to know all of us individually . However, through this blog assignment, I did get to know each classmates more. This assignment also did help me re-think about the lectures that the professor went over in class and class activities. Since I had to answer the questions, I had to re-think about the lessons that we learned in class. However, I do not think this assignment required any outside reading or thinking. This assignment was definitely a give away points, but it does require some work and effort. However, not only does it help you to get a better grade, but it is another way to learn about the real life management. I am going to try to keep on posting my thoughts or ideas about my life even after this class. I think this assignment has helped me learn more about myself and others at the same time.
