Halfway Blog Revision

Learning Blog Revision
            So far, I enjoy coming to class because this is place where I am not restricted to guidelines with my writing. Having the freedom to write my way is great! Having a blog as an interactive learning tool in the class is something that I have never done before. With that said, I realize that technology is a rapidly increasing genre that needs to be thought of as a learning tool. I like pairing up in groups and working with others. My peers are assigned to the same tasks as I am, so they will be the most beneficial to giving me feedback. After the peer revisions, I have learned that there are many angles of thought that I have not discovered yet and that there is no single way to approach literature. Working with my peers has increased my creativity because I am seeing things from a new angle and gaining knowledge along the way. In the beginning, I did struggle with the “no structure” deal, but I have come to realize that this lack of structure improves the quality and content of my work because there is no limit as to what I can write and I don’t have stick with the norm of writing. After the much needed class discussions about what was expected, or should I say not expected, of my writing, I am much more aware of the different ways to write.  A quote from Napoleon Hill, an American author and early producer of the genre of personal success literature, says: “There are no limits to the mind except those that we acknowledge.” Writing possibilities are  endless!!
