Creating a blog and maintaining it frequently is a problem for me. I believe I’m not interested in blogs. It just gave me the freedom of expressing myself but does not really help me in reflecting on what I have learnt in lecture and tutorials. I prefer participating in forums where I can read my colleagues’ postings and know more about the topic. Whereas through blogging, I don’t think everyone in the class benefit from it, this is because not everyone goes to their friend’s blog and read all the postings. Some just read the shortest posting and reply to it. So this means that not everyone is reflecting on what they have learnt.
Although I find blogs are not very useful for me to reflect on what I have learnt in class, sometimes when I read my colleagues’ postings, I can see that they could reflect on what they have studied and it really does encourage me to do better with my postings. I did try to reflect through my postings but not very sure whether my postings are really reflective.
