Group Blog Analysis

I believe blogging is a great resource for students looking to improve their writing. Blogging can improve a student's writing skills and build their confidence as writers. By blogging, students can take ownership of their writing, become better observers of others’ writing, and develop a more immediate and powerful understanding of audience. Blogs encourage experimenting and requires you to think more than usual. Blogging lets you put both, the free aspect of short pieces, and the long thought out aspect of long pieces. With clear expectations of what is required in the class blog, students can see their writing develop over the course of the trimester. My favorite aspect of the blogging in our Senior Writing class, was being able to write about whatever topic you decided. In my opinion that made the writing/blogging experience more comfortable for people who maybe weren't the best writers when forced to write about one topic. As I looked at the other blogs, it made me wish I could have used more hyperlinks and videos but in conclusion, I enjoyed the blogging experience in our Senior Writing class.
