Evaluation
The weekly blog post I think is helpful for students who are eagerly interested in knowing more about history because we get to summarize something that has been taught in class or any topic of our choice. It helps students to get a clear understanding of a certain topic, and it improves students writing. Also, the ScoopIt! pages give students a more explanation to the topic, which is also helpful.
Each student learn differently; I like lectures. Although our class is not that interactive, I enjoy listening to the discussion. The visual aid used is helping me a lot to pay attention to the details that are given, and gives me enough time to take down notes. It is nice to have three quizzes based on the topics covered and not cummulative, which is reasonable considering the workload in this class.
I am honestly not into technology, and this is the first history class I have ever had that is really into use of technology. I think the projects get a bit complicated sometimes because we have to post them to different websites. However, I appreciate having to deal with it because it enhanced what I know, and at the same time I learned new ways of expanding my knowledge in making good videos and auras. But overall, I enjoyed and learned a lot in this class despite of the workload that is given to us.
