BLOG EXPERIENCE

Last tutorial, our group have been discuss a topic about the experience of blog .The discussion included the disadvantages and advantages of the blog, application of blog, and our reaction to the blog.

In our discussion,we found that there are many advantages and disadvantages of blog. To us, blog is a medium to express ourselves about thoughts, feelings , opinions, views, and so on. It is a free bound without any restriction.The disadvantages of blag is that, it is one way communication, we cant get immediately response from others. We cannot make sure that there will be a feedback or response from our blog, maybe we need wait for several hours, several days or even a longer time!Besides, blog is a space that can spread rumours,untrue information and news. For example, we can found that there are lots of information that we cannot determine whether it has been proven or not because people can just make up things in the blog. People would spread the news like a superstar has been found die but later we will discovered that it just a joke . Nevertheless, blog still got its advantages,we can write anything free through the blog, we can express our viewpoints, ideas, feelings, opinions, and so on, and also tell others about our life, our joy, our sorrow, or anything, but we must take responsibilities to what we wrote and talked about.It is also very easy and convenient , because we can log on to blog at any time, any place.

In our group discussion we also discuss about our reaction to blog , our feeling when we found that our blog has been publish and there is a lot of people giving their comments to our blog. Most of us feel pround, to us, it is an encouragement, it will boost our confidence, the next time we will do our best , to publish a better blog. We also discuss our reaction to the blog. W e can learn how to decorate our own blog, is the opppoturnity to show our creativity, to give our blog a brand new background, a beatiful decoration. Actually i just learnt the ways to decorate my blog,the ways to edit photoes, music on the blog from coursemate,. I felt i've been left behind because most of my coursemate know how to decorate their blog by their own.

From the article BLOGGING AND TRAINEE TEACHERS' PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT by Malachi Edwin Vethamani from University Putra Malaysia. We found that blog is a very good way for us to express ourselves, we can express our feeling, opinions, thoughts, feelings , ideas, and so on trough the blog. It is a medium t let people to communicate with each other, to know and understand others and learn from them .Writing blog can make people become more confidence, because we may not brave enought to give our viewpoints in the class, because of certain causes but trough blog , we can write about ourselves without fear or any obstacles. Writing blog can also make us become more creative trough the use of the softskill , becuse we need to decorate our our own blog, by the way to edit our photoes, music and the decoration of the background. Apart from this, we can overcome our shyness by writing a blog because maybe we are shy or afraid to express our viewpoint in the class, to our course -mate, our lecturer, the face to face discussion, but we can confide our feeling by writing blog without feeling shy, because nobody will look at us but look at our blog only.
