Reflect

On Tuesday our Mid Semester portfolio was do and I wasn’t too happy that I was going to be evaluate my own blogs. I picked my top five blogs that I felt best represented my work. It was hard because I couldn’t pick between two.  I then answered a series of questions and wrote a reflection on blogging, how I felt about blogging and what I had learned from blogging. It helped me to see for the most part I like blogging. Furthermore, it became a great way for me to reflect on what I have done thus far in the semester. Reflecting is so important in just about every area of our lives. And many times we forget to reflect. Reflecting was a key point in doing our portfolios it better helped me to evaluate my work I have done this far in the semester it showed me my strengths and weak spots in my writing. I really enjoyed re reading my blogs, I had forgot what I had written on some of my older blogs and I definitely see my growth within my writing from my older to the more resent blogs. I also liked that I got to look back on my thought pattern on how a felt about a topic or activity I wrote on.

 Doing this profile helped me to recognize my writing abilities and definitely what I need to work on because I think that my writing abilities are not as strong as I would like them to be and I like every chance I get to improve them. I feel have learned through blogging on how to better develop my skills in critical thing, analyzing, and creativity.

Once in class we got to sit with our small groups and discuss our portfolios, based off of the few questions that Professor Corrigan placed on the board along with my peers own personal thoughts and feelings toward their blogs and portfolios . The evaluation was a great way to better help me improve and learn more about myself in the way I write and think on the material I’m learning not only in Literature class but in my other courses.
