Communicating via Blog

Communication is one the most important thing in our life. We need to use communication tools and channels to communicate others. Communication can’t without the tools and channels. The effective communication tools and channels can make our easy and accurate. Blog is one of the greatest communication tools.
This blog is my first blog, and I think the blog has been as a communications tool not only for this class, but also out of this class. It is a very cool and useful tool which I use in my studying.
75 minutes in one class is not enough to communicate everyone, but blog is a great tool to extend the communicating. The blog is a good way to communicate all the classmates after class. I learned from others a lot by using the blog.
In additional, the blog assignment provides the chance let us rethink and analyze the class activities. Everyone can share the class activities experience and make a comment to each other. The blog just likes the record of the class activities.
We also can read several management topics through the professor’s blog. The topics were not directly related to the course but very useful. I like some topics like Become Friends with your Time, How to Become Smarter and tips to rock your career. I learn a lot from those. I feel it is enough, but I still can read more. The more I read, the better I will be.
There are 20% of our grade come from the blog. It is very cool, because it is not only the assignment but it is a blog. I hope it can help my grade because I didn’t do well at two mid-term exams. I very disappoint my performance in the mid-term exams, so I try my best to do well in the blog.
I am sure that I will continue to post your thoughts or ideas on my blog after this class has ended. Blog is a good communication tools and platform. I also agree the blog remain a component of this course.

  1. This blog did really help everyone get in touch with one another outside of class. 75 minutes per class time is not enough to be able to interact with everyone and through the opportunity of the blogs, we can hear everyone' opinions and learn what they experienced in the activities. It did help me refresh my memory about the activity and incorporate it to the lesson. I thought it was really nice that the blog itself was worth 20% of the grade. It helps me manage how 20% of my grade is accounted for in the semester and I feel more in control of my grade as well.

  2. I think it's great that you were able to learn from these assignments. I also had pretty disappointing grades on my midterms, but thanks to the blog, I can make up for some of that.
