Farewell and Goodluck

Who knew that blogging can be educational? Professor Kurpis did. I found the blog requirement to be helpful to the overall experience of the class. I learned more than I would have just by going to class because I was actively involved in thinking and analyzing different concepts and ideas. I liked that we had a bit more contact with others than we did in class. I haven’t decided yet if it was good that we didn’t know the people we were commenting on, but I’m leaning towards it being a incomplete idea. I think it would have been nice to be able to develop some kind of professional relationship with other people in the class via out blogs. Perhaps if we were given assignments to talk about more personal things, it would have brought out more of ourselves and others could see the info.
I like that 20% of out grade is based on our blogs. I agree that if we manage the blogs properly, we have less to worry about if we didn’t get a 100 on our tests. I didn’t really realize that the blogs were worth 20%, I just knew that they were important. Nevertheless, I posted my blogs almost always on time and responded to others within the dates given.
It is possible that I will continue on with this blog. I doubt that it will be strictly about management, but will incorporate all kinds of things. I have wanted to have a blog long before I started this class and this is good opportunity for me to explore the world of blogging. So thank you Professor Kurpis.
