Thing #4

Blogging helps create a sense of community by having an open window for anyone to peer into. It is a place for opinions, thoughts, ideas, and questions that is open to anyone. People can interact with just a click of the mouse and read posts. Complete interaction is supplying feedback on the posts that are read. I learned from The Blue Skunk Blog that is good to leave a comment on a bloggers post, because reguardless their remarks of "blogging for personal growth", everyone likes to know that someone is paying them some mind. They also explained it is polite to thank every responder for their time they took to read the blog. I agree and will use those pointers in my blogging.
The five people from my class I choose are: Morgan Hill because I have her in another class and I think she is intelligent, I'm sure she will have some good posts. Lindsey Byrum because I have had her in another class and I think it will be nice to get to know her better. Pam Dwyer because she sits next to me in class and Chonta Dillingham because she sits on the other side of me in class. The other two blogs that I intend to read are Shanna Borgeson because she is ahead of the game and is one of the people who has the most posts in my class.
The two from 3040-01 are Alli Walker because I went to high school with her and Jerita Reese because I have had two prior classes with her and think she is humorous.
I left Alli a comment about her blog on thing #8 and the fliker program. She made a good point, the program could be used to get images to personalize student's desks.
Jerita's thing #2 caught my eye. I left her a comment lending a hand for help with anything because the blogging isn't too difficult for me and she said she was having issues with it.
I left Morgan a comment on her thing #4. Seems now that we know a little about one another we can agree on quite a bit.
I commented on Lidnsey's thing #3 because I agree that blogging can be a good way to help peers with assignments.
I left Pam a comment on her thing #2 letting her know that if I can help in anyway with asssignments that I will. Her and I seem to be the only ones who use PC and have issues converting to MACs!!
I left Chonta a comment on thing #3. Seems everyone agrees blogging is a good way to help others or be helped...and I added that its also nice not to have to give out your phone number!
I like Shanna's blog on thing #6. It is a good site and I think its a good idea to incorporate it in the classroom.
