Blog Post 2

1. Hands on activities, attention grabbers, and quality information
2. I have liked the attention grabbers so far because they have gotten people’s attention early on and kept people interested. I also liked the hands on activities, like the ipads that also kept people entertained.  The most important part of the presentation is the information and the information we have gotten so far has had great quality.
3. Long pauses, reading slides directly, and being short on time
4. Groups should not take long pauses and read PowerPoint slides directly because it creates awkward pauses and is boring.  The worst thing groups can do is be short on time because groups lose points and it throws the rest of the class’ schedule.

I would use blogs in an educational way by encouraging students to post their prewriting assignment ideas and sharing them with the rest of the class.  I would also use blogs to get student feedback on assignments I assigned during class.
