EXTRA CREDIT

I have always enjoyed communication, so prior to enrolling in RTF 305, I had already been keeping up with two blogs. One blog is an account of my personal life whereas the other is a new year's resolution to keep myself accountable in practicing acts of kindness daily. Being able to discuss concepts further in depth and apply them to examples has been a positive aspect of using a blog in RTF 305. However, sometimes it took a lot more effort than I expected to find examples to match the material we were learning. The blog was easy to maintain, so I did not encounter any trouble technologically speaking. The 6th Blog Prompt, which required us to discuss examples of shots Prof. Ramirez-Berg described, was interesting but also challenging since we had to find a film that had not been discussed already. We also had to know the film well enough to tie the plot into the rationale for each shot. I would recommend using a blog in a future course simply because it is a much easier way to track students' learning progress. I would suggest that all blog prompts be posted on the main blog because blog prompts get lost when they are emailed. I would also suggest that they be posted at the same time each week to have more structure.
