The effectiveness of using weblogs for learning purpose
I think it is easily to understand other people’s, especially for those who are not my friends, thoughts as I do not know much friends who are taking the bachelor degree of communication studies. But, for me, I think here is something missing. Maybe is the interaction. This weblog, in some way, cannot stimulate, at least me-myself, interaction much.
Am I really a cyborg?
I was once working on a project which was related to computer addiction. During the research, I agreed with my great granny says, “Nowadays, youth are driven by technology, sigh.” At that time, I just believed computer is equaled to technology as I thought I was one of those youth.
After having the seminors and toturial classes of the course, I started to rethink my own relationship with the technologies, like my personal computer, my cell phone, my lovely NDSL and even my electronic dictionary! And then, the sense which is able to make the distinction between me and technologies is vanishing. So, I cannot deny I am not a cyborg as my ability to define this distinction is getting weak.
This course in general...
To be honest, I do not like it!! (Just kidding, LOL)
My feeling toward this course is complex. The theoretical contexts of this course, like “cultural jamming” and “cyber punk” are little bit tough for me because I did not study anything relevant before. However, some of the seminars did raise my interest, like “JenniCAM”, Frankenstein, playing games and Ad-busters. I did gain something from this well-organized course.
And, lastly, thanks a lot to Alison and Wesley.
