Di’s E-learning Experience

Only a week and a half until we complete the work for this semester. As I was making some notes for my reflection on my short online course experience, I started to reflect on the benefits I had gained from blogging over the past 12-13 weeks.
Initially, I struggled with the concept of putting my thoughts online. The main reason (I think) being that I wanted to post a complete and researched thought. However I have now come to terms with the idea to just write my thoughts as they come and let my blogs be a way of organising my thoughts. The interactive aspect of blogs also has allowed me to get feed back and new ideas from others on the way. I still remember the first contact I received from an outside blogger, what a buzz!! Someone actually took the time to read what I had written.

In the short time I have been blogging I have found that I am now looking at issues in a more critical and analytical way. I plan to keep up my blogging habit, even thoughI have almost finished this course. I really like the way you can collect your thoughts under a tag and just go back to them later for further development.
