My experience so far, of blogging and online seminars has been interesting. The time that it takes to read, write and comment on other group members makes it completely different t other seminars. A normal seminar would last for 50mins, but this requires constant attention and it has taken me a while to adjust to this. I feel like because of this, the rest of my groups blogs have lacked response from me and even my blogs havent recieved responses. This is an obvious difference when compared to normal seminars; here you dont get direct responses.
However i have enjoyed how instead of relying on other people to teach me what i need to know; i have to contribute; by reading and getting more absorbed in the work and even having my own opinions.
I might not be myself, but who is online? I keep wanting to use slang words, as im so used to writing to peers on facebook and im never this confident around fellow students. Plus i know that im being assessed.
What i do like about blogs is that it allows you to take time in structuring what your saying and hypertext allows me to be a 'produser'. Sonya Livingstone stated that hypertext may lead people to create a new form of literacy to understand it. However, being brought up on this new media, doesn't affect me.
