English Reflection

 

I’ve kind of enjoyed Blogging, from a creative aspect it’s really nice to be able to express myself in different ways through blogging, however, from a master procrastinator viewpoint, it is still another assignment. Assignment aside, the open-ended aspect of most of our blog posts has really helped me expand my writing and my capabilities when it comes to expressing myself through my voice. It also has allowed me to make that connections with peers that we can’t make online anymore. These blogs spark conversation that would go unspoken over zoom. It also allows me to get to know about people I may have not ever gotten the opportunity to speak with even if we were able to go to school.

The workload hasn’t been too bad, I kind of expected worse, I don’t feel like I’m overflowed with work at all. The amount of work isn’t much different from the rest of my classes or previous English classes. I think this class also relaxes me more/ makes me more comfortable than my other English classes because of our choice reading, it allows the class to feel a little more free and not so restricted, much like the blogging. The same thing applies to the Harkness Discussions, although those will always make me anxious because I’m just an anxious person, but the concept is more open-ended and the encouragement to try and listen instead of focus on what to say next kind of calms me down a bit. Overall, I’ve really enjoyed this class! 😊
