I am definitely not doing as great as I hoped I would be doing. I let myself fall behind on assignments and am currently missing 2. I got distracted and overwhelmed by my other courses but NO need to worry though, I will have them done by the following week!! I plan on catching up to all assignment and going back and fixing work that need editing.

I believe that I am currently on a C grade due to my missing assignments which are Assignments #4 and #5. However, hopefully I do bring this grade up and see the grade that I am looking for. I have attached links to my completed assignment at the bottom of this post.

What I have learned the most is uploading GIFS that I obtain from GIPHY. Another skill that I learned is hyperlinking certain words of my writing which is shown throughout this writing piece or at the bottom of this page. This is something I had no idea I was able to do because when I was first got introduced to all of this, I was nervous because it was all new terminology to me. I also learned to make my own memes on –> https://makeameme.org/ which I demonstrated on Assignment #3.

Aside from publishing my blog post assignments, I also assess my participation by attending weekly classes on zoom. I have yet to comment on someones post or participate on class discussions but I do plan on doing so in the near future. I have, however, participated via messages during the zoom call but not speaking. The class format does, in a way, contribute to my progress because it allows me to catch up on my work. Everything on this class website is formatted in a way that is easy to read and follow.

As mentioned before, I had no idea of any GIF or meme creating websites. I only viewed them on TikTok or instagram. I also had no clue on how to create my own website or the importance of sizing images in order to make the writing look presentable.

I can see that my blogging work expanded creatively from assignment #1 to assignment #2, but it has stayed on a loop on the other assignments. I do hope I learn how to use more websites so that I can make my work even more creative and presentable to the audience.

The following are my completed assignments:
