23. Has blogging been helpful for you in this research project? In what way might blogging be better used for future classes?

I feel that blogging is a very good form of providing classroom community, especially in a virtual sense. In English 102, i believe that there was only one day in class that we were really asked for our opinions to try and help each other out with our research topics and proposals. If time does not allow in class, i think that blogging is a different approach to create this. Will i use it in my classroom someday....? Possibly..... depending on the course and topic. I do however feel that blogging is better used if all student need to comment on one central topic instead of everyone just commenting on their own blog. That way you are forced to see each others views instead of seeking them out.
