I agree, I don't think that Wisconsin needs to incorporate a lot more Internet use into the classroom because most classes already have a lot of online assignments and resources. However, it seems that the journalism and communications classes are the classes that are the most successful in incorporating it well. I believe that it would be really helpful if some of the science classes I've taken had more online resources or assignments because if I miss a lecture, it's very difficult to catch up. But overall, I prefer face-to-face class and discussions.Michelle McGuirehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06755456109434748217noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4126361429165717196.post-63699107532838103082014-12-09T09:56:44.516-06:002014-12-09T09:56:44.516-06:00I agree with your point about how you analyze webs...I agree with your point about how you analyze websites now more because of our understanding of how they work.

I have always felt you get stronger and more genuine responses in person than you might when someone is responding to your ideas on the blog. It is a good idea to encourage people to respond to what other students are writing on the blog in order to get them to actually read what else is being said but too often I think they are responses that would be different than what they would be if they were in person interactions. That is one thing I believe this course needs to work on.

Many classes don't allow people to say how they feel, most just ask for a review of the material. But the strength in learning from your peers is to integrate other perspectives into developing your own. I didn't like the online part of the class though because even though we still met for class, I never got the opportunity to truly meet someone because all the work was online and not in class.Adam Muchahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12845004451159428108noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4126361429165717196.post-30878156131959143112014-12-04T13:28:04.190-06:002014-12-04T13:28:04.190-06:00Hi Erin, I totally agree with what you said about ...Hi Erin, I totally agree with what you said about the ease of voicing your opinion in hybrid courses.

The internet, in general, provides a lot of ambiguity and anonymity and this is also seen with the classes featured on it. It's kind of weird commenting or discussing things with just a picture of a person. It seems less important and fake to me too.

It was interesting to see how much he adores the technology and how he sees no potential harms of the device.

I would have guessed the computer would have been the most important tool for his business, but it makes sense that the iPhone is because it is just a small portable computer that he can carry around in his pocket. No matter what becomes the new most important tool in a business, I feel it will always involve a computer in some sort of way.

My dad is also a small business owner and relies heavily on his iPhone in order to run his business. My dad however uses texting, emailing, and calling in order to cater to the variety of customers he has. It was interesting to learn how our parents rely on their phones for much different things than we typically do.
