FINAL BLOG

There were many instances in English 11 where technology was very useful and came in handy. In particular, I found Google Docs to be the most worth while. It was very convenient to be able to have my paper peer edited without actually having to be in the same room as the editor. It was also a nice change to be able to read other people's papers and see how they were handling/ reacting to the same assignment. Using the Wikispaces was also a technology that I preferred over the traditional poster projects that are over used in other classes. However, the constant assigned responses on Mr. Ayer's wikispace got rather annoying and I think we would have gotten more out of some of those topics by having a discussion in class or at least discussing some of our responses in class. Technology is great but it doesn't quite beat a real life discussion.
