BLOG REVIEW
The writing of this blog over the past month has been a
rewarding yet challenging experience. It has opened my eyes to the benefits of
blogging and it has taught me the importance or concisely articulating my point
of view.
Challenges:
One of the main challenges associated with the blog was the
extensive research required to support my arguments and my points. Finding the
time to do this research and then construct the blog every week was problematic
as it often meant I was allocating a lot of my time to this weekly task.
Another great challenge I encountered was being able to
correctly and concisely articulate what I wanted to say in French. My first two
blogs illustrated my difficulties win doing this but I hope that my subsequent blogs
reflect some improvement.
Benefits:
In writing this blog, my confidence in my French increased. Being
able to see myself improve and my marks increase was a real reward. It was
pleasing and useful to take the feedback from my marker and use it to improve
my next piece.
Improvements:
I would suggest for future students that how to use the
genre for each piece is clearer, so that it is easier to understand what
exactly a particular type of writing requires. Other than this, I would be
happy to do the blog assignment in the future as it has definitely taught me to
pay closer attention to detail in my work and has allowed me to learn how to
properly express what I want to say.
