How am I doing in CT101?

I think I’m doing ok in CT101 but, theres definitely room for improvement. I try to watch back the lessons that I may miss part of or just to get an understanding of the assignment. Even though I am still working through some of those assignments I’m almost caught up with everything. One thing I know I have to work on is keeping up with my posts and responding to comments.

What have I learned and retained the most?

I never blogged before as much as I have this semester so one thing I can say I retained was that ability lol. Even the aspect of telling a story through images is something Ive gotten better at. Also to some extent my troubleshooting has gotten better since having to learn how to format different types of media in order for it to function.

What new skills have I developed, cultivated and displayed regularly in my weekly posts?

I try to incorporate all the necessities in my weekly posts whether it be GIF or hyperlink. I usually try to create my posts to be quick and to the point like a synopsis but, still apply the storytelling techniques that we were taught.

What do I know now that I did not know before taking this class?

Before taking this class I was unaware of the history of things like blogging and meme culture. Something that seemingly came out of nowhere was actually an idea started long ago that we were late to the party for. I also learned a lot about AI and the different programs available using that feature.

What grade do I believe I am maintaining and why do I deserve that grade?

I think I’m hovering around the B- area since I have turned in the majority of my assignments and I participate when I can. My work shows growth throughout each assignment.

Do I see my weekly blogging work expanding creatively? If so, please explain why –  or am I stuck in a loop where my posts seem to look the same most of the time, how will I change that?

I feel like my posts have been expanding creatively especially when discussing more personal topics. It was easier for me to expound on my ideas about my passions per se instead of drawing on personal experiences for other topics. I do feel like I have a formula when writing my blog posts which may lead to a bit of sameness to them.

Are there any assignments that you are missing? If so, list them.

Right now the only assignment I’m missing is number 6 because Im having trouble conceptualizing what i want to do for my pages.

Assignment #1: What’s making me happy on the internet?

Assignment #2: Making a GIF and CT101 so far…

Assignment #3 – Are Memes Art?

Assignment #4 – The Passion Blog

Assignment #5 Digital Storytelling Project Flexibility

Are you commenting regularly on your classmates posts? Are you responding back to comments given to you by the professor & your classmates?

This is something I definitely need to work on because I don’t respond to comments as often as I should.

Are you participating during the class time? If not, explain why.

I feel like I participate during class time when I can but, there aren’t many opportunities to do so. Primarily because I usually chime in during our history breaks instead of during instruction time.
