Last Post: Mixed Emotions




These two pics represent my feelings about this last day of school. I loved this class! Thank you for being my guinea pigs with blogging. Please take a moment to comment on the blogging experience, and give me any advice for the future in blogging. Also, please let me know if I should delete your link or if I could use your blog as an example in the future. Let me know ... and READ THE EXAM REVIEW POSTS, PEOPLE! I WILL HELP YOU OUT OF PITY. (Where is that line from?)

Thanks again, have a great summer and a great life and think about this:

The End of Class

Well, this class is almost over, and I have to admit, I'm a little verklempt. Talk amongst yourselves. I'll give you a topic: the peanut is neither a pea nor a nut. Discuss.

Well, there is only a week left of class, and I have to admit, I am really sorry to see this class end. I have learned so much from all of you - and I have really started to see the world differently, and I hope that you all have too. I want to thank you all for bearing with me and buying into this class - I have thoroughly enjoyed each one of your blogs. It has been some of the most rewarding and thought provoking "marking" I have ever done!

While I know that we still have a lot to do in the next week, and it doesn't seem like the end, the blogging will be over soon. Your final blog marks are fast approaching, and hopefully you are all putting the final touches on your blogs, editing, adding hyperlinks, polishing, updating, etc. I am really interested to know what you plan to do with your blog when the class is over. Personally, I don't know what to do with my blog. I have become very used to thinking about it. I have put hours and hours of time into this, and it seems really wrong for that to all just be done. Perhaps I will adapt it into a more personal blog. I know quite a few people who keep blogs to keep all of their friends informed about their lives. But I think I actually like writing about the media. Hmmm... Is anyone planning on keeping theirs - or changing it to some other form? I am hoping to teach this class again and I will try this blogging out again. Are there any comments or suggestions about blogging in class? This was my first time, so please, leave some suggestions for me. I would like to have some comments about blogging, what you think about it, what you will do, what I should do, etc. Please comment!

Thanks Everybody!

Well, I think the first two days of blogging were a success and I was thrilled to get some positive feedback from everybody. I really hope that everyone continues to be eager and enthusiastic. Please let me know if you have any ideas about the unit; I love feedback and suggestions. I think I am going to have "blog marking day" be Sunday, so please make sure that you have your internet safety assignment done by then (email it to me if necessary) and also be sure to have added your childhood story (I love them!) and two comments to my articles. I will give everyone some feedback on Monday, when we start blogging.

Also, there may be a problem with signing up for a blogger account at school, so this might need to be done at home. Let me know if that will be a problem for anyone.

Cheers!
