Blogging: Part Deux


When I first started thinking about doing a Masters in Informational Technology I realized that there were a number of things I had NOT done before. One of them was blogging. Maybe it was due to time constraints, maybe it was due to some self-conscience insecurities, but for whatever the reason, I hadn't. So, in the interest of education, I decided to give it shot. 

My first attempt was basically a reposting of works done by others. After making several posts, my interest in blogging quickly dwindled. I started to feel ... well, been there, done that, what's the big deal.

So, what has changed?

Well, first, I must complete a collector page of sorts for the current Masters course I am working on. After seeing several great examples of blogs done by others, I thought that a blog would be a wonderful way to collect, organize, and share what I have been doing this term. A second reason why I have returned to blogging is because of the students I teach. I see blogging as holding great promise for them. Blogging has numerous educational benefits, ones that I wish for both my students and I to avail of.

I also see blogging as having many positive personal benefits as well. I want to explore these in greater depth through blogging and see where this journey leads. For those of you reading this, I thank you for joining me on this adventure.
