15 b Reflection on What You Learned

I definitly learned to be more organized in my writing and a great way to do it is by bookmarking all my sources i find in the internet using a delicious account. It is more effective than printing or writing everything out. I wouldn't necessarily use a blog, it was very hard for me to keep track of things there, but it was a neat idea. By doing good reasearch I discovered writing a 12 page essay isnt too daunting, I had also never written such a long paper and this class helped me at last make one. What did affect me a lot though was what I liked so much, having everything done by the internet. There were countless times my computer crashed and erased all my work and prevented me from logging on to the class wiki, perhaps many didn't experience these problems but finally experiencing them disheartened me from having everything solely done online. Either way I'm positive that getting to know many helpful resources online will help me a lot in future essays.
