I Finally got a hold of a computer!
1. After studying media for eight weeks in this class, what have you learned?
I have learned that I have strengthened my media tools. i am more analytical towards media and keepings my eyes peeled for all the techniques that are being used on me
2. What is the most important thing you have learned about yourself as a 1. A critical reader; 2. a writer, and 3. a critical thinker in this class so far?
I am a very critical reader and thinker my skill have been strengthened. I have always enjoyed looking at things critically and not taking much for face value. This class so far has helped me to see that it is a very good thing to look at media the way I always have. As a writer I enjoy it very much and I love to express my opinion.
3. What is one thing that you would do differently this first half of the semester if you were to take this class again?
This blog is a perfect example as to why I need to do the blogs the day they are assigned! I do not have a computer and over breaks I do not go home so I need to library to do the blogs. So I should have taken my own advice and done this right after the MidTerm!
4. What is one thing you would like me (Williams) to do differently this first half of the semester if you were to take the class again?
More short films or clips. I really loved analyzing films and looking into what is really being presented. More class discussions! I love class discussions every class should have great discussions.
5. The usefulness of the course blog, your personal blog, our films, and our book(s) as learning tools.
The personal blog is a lot of fun, it is fun to get out there and start expressing my opinion freely but in a scholastic manner. The book was very helpful and accurate. I love the films they open your eyes to things you knew before but never really thought about. I loved the Persuaders and Real Bad Arabs.
come back and check out my media Meditation, it will be aboout my trip to NY and a day at a community college.

EXCELLENT blogging of your mid-term reflections, Larissa.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your thoughts - I like your suggestion for short films in class - hopefully, we'll do more of this during the spring.
Welcome back - fine observations in class today!
