It is the first time for me to use blog for learning. In the past, school website was designed for students to download lecture notes or check the assignment schedule. I can experience the merit of using internet in learning aspect when I am doing Self.net.
To be honest, we are cyborgs. We need computers for study and entertainment. Electronic devices and internet becomes part of our lives .We surf on the net every day by using mobile phones or computers.With the development of technology, it is so easy for us to connect to the world even we are outside.
In fact, internet can be the complement of learning. This blog is a platform for us to write academic passage through weblog. Under the schedule of the course requirement, we have to have discussion in classmates' presentation. It gives us a chance to revise what we learn from readings and lectures. I think it helps students to consolidate what they learned in a new subject.
This blog encourages students' participation in discussion.Compared with the foreign students, Hong Kong students are not keen on expressing their views in class. I remembered that when I was studying in Australia, my classmates love sharing in the class. I kept silent as I felt shy. In class discussion may not workable for Hong Kong students. However, classmates can feel free to express their views in the blog. Meaningful and interesting comments can be seen in the blog. As I mentioned before, students can understand the module better when they make comments with the support of the knowledge from readings.
