LEARN FROM REFLECTING ON EXPERIENCE

 

Individuals and businesses have widely used blogging for informal online postings. Blogs' instructional potential is becoming more widely recognized. Blogs can be used to facilitate group discussions, peer reviews, and collaborative projects. Blogging about a topic is more engaging than simply reading about it. Blogging allows students to express themselves in their own "unique voices." Students can hone their communication and conversation skills by commenting on other people's posts or responding to feedback on their blogs. Blogging can also teach students to be polite and thoughtful.

Blogging develops students' critical skills and enhances learning to a higher level, rather than simply "understanding" and "remembering" educational content. Before their thoughts can be written down, students must analyze the subject, then clarify their thoughts about the subject, and then carefully formulate and stand by their own personal views. When they create original content and layout for their blogs, blogging allows them to express themselves creatively. Students can express themselves creatively by customizing the motifs, identifying appropriate images or videos, and designing the layout. This is an aesthetic platform for students to express themselves. Blogging can make learning more enjoyable.

Blogging necessitates a significant amount of writing. However, improving one's writing skills does not happen overnight. Instructors must provide explicit instructions at the start of the project, including step-by-step instructions on how to blog, how to be authentic, how to endorse your viewpoints, and how to interact expectations for the learner.
