So far writing blogs has seemed kind of interesting. I don’t like the fact that we are given
prompts to write about though. I think
that in the spirit of blogging we should just be told to read and article and
write about how it makes us feel. I think
that it would give us more argument points and that it would be more benefitial
to our opinion formation. I love the
fact that this class and blogging in general is open to opinions and how
students feel about specific topics.
After reading many of these articles I see that writing and reading has changed
a lot since the formation of the internet and that it isn’t a bad thing. Just because we aren’t using big words and
talking to sound smart doesn’t mean that we aren’t smart. I think that it means that we are just saying
things strait. We are saying what we
mean without any word fluff or words that make us sounds smart and
important. I think that the web has
changed us to be more upfront with information.
Blogging and the web has made arguing and information more readily
available for anyone.
Hmm. The totally open post, no prompt idea, could be fun. I think you'll find that the second unit posts are a little wider open. But I might incorporate your open-post idea at some point.
ReplyDeleteI concur with what you are saying. I find your insights intriguing.
