I thought blogging was worthwhile and really helped me stay on top of the course material each week. I especially liked that many of the blog posts prompted me to do research into my own life like looking into the safety of my personal care products and cleaning products or looking into where my water comes from and the quality of my tap water. Additionally, now I have different databases I can continue to use and refer to like the EWG Skin Deep Cosmetics Database which will definitely be useful in the future. My only complaint about blogging was the number of technical issues my group had with blogger. A few times in the semester the commenting was not working properly which took so much time to resolve and caused a lot of frustration.
I feel like my favorite portion of the course was the actual blog portion! It really did help me stay on top of the material as well, in addition to gaining further insight in the topic of each module. Also, getting to read about my peers' plans and viewpoints showed me new ways to approach public health concerns. Great work this semester! Keep it up!
ReplyDeleteI agree that blogs are a good idea of keeping us engaged and providing communication in small groups so we could share personal thoughts. I also liked the blogs' themes and structures. It made me think deeper about particular topics.
