Evaluation Blog

-I have never written a blog or used a blog website before attending RTF 305.


-I think there are a few positive aspects that come from using a blog. I feel it is more convenient to log on a blogging website and write a weekly assignment rather than writing a formal essay, printing it out and turning it in. I like that writing a blog for a college course feels informal and doesn’t create as much stress as regular homework, possibly leading to better grades for some students.

-I did not encounter many difficulties when writing or posting blogs. When writing the first blog, I had a little trouble adding media, but our TA quickly cleared up any confusion about adding links and html.

-I felt that all blogs were around the same level of difficulty. However, the most interesting blog (in my opinion) was number eight, in which we had to apply different camera angles to our favorite film. I did not take much interest in prompts in which we had to define, explain and then apply a concept or system to an example from the book or lecture.

-I would recommend using blogs in a future RTF 305 or any undergraduate course at UT. I feel that it is more effective than having formal writing assignments and more efficient.

-I do not have any suggestions or changes to add to the blogging experience.

Yes, you can use my blog in a paper or a report.
