Reflection

Unless you're willing to have a go, fail miserably, and have another go, success won't happen.
Phillip Adams

After my experience with Dreamweaver last semester I was a bit apprehensive about creating a blog. Fast forward a couple of months and I have had so much fun and learnt so much researching my topic and Web 2.0.

There wasn't a part of the process I didn't enjoy (except losing some notes) and found myself fully immersed for hours on end. There was a whole other world out there that kept expanding the further I delved into it.

I enjoyed the collaborative nature of blogging, reading other students' blogs, finding blogs by the library community, sharing discoveries and the process of linking my research with the blog.

I can see that I would use blogs and Web 2.0 in the future in a professional capacity. As a convert, I have even managed to convince a couple of friends that blogs are what they need for their business ventures.

  1. Hi Diane

    I'm conscious of the fact that I haven't commented on your blog (in the virtual space!)because we have discussed it together each week in class. I'd just like to restate my postion that you have done an excellent job!

    You've really grasped the balance of reflection on the research process with gathering sound research material AND developing your technical blogging skills.

    Have you checked your clusty map lately? You have readers in the US and Malaysia!!

    Don't forget to also paste this final reflection on to the relevant webCT discussion board. Look forward to seeing your final cut...

    Regards,
    Linda
