Survey

I Do enjoy using blogs in the class, but sometimes the blogs need to be posted at home and my computer at home is slow an it is very difficult for me to post my responses.


I do not use blogs for any other classes.


I like that when he is not here we can use the blog to communicate, but I do not like the time frame we get when a post is due.

The blog is fairly easy to use now, but in the beginning I had difficulties.


I don't wish any of my other classes would use blogs because I mainly have math and science classes, so it would be difficult to do a blog.


I do have Internet access at home,but we have dial up so it is very slow and very difficult to post my responses.

I usually write them at home even though it is difficult because we don't normally get class time to post.


I learn better by doing handwritten assignments.


I do not have another blog, myspace, or facebook.

Dead Poets Society

(I missed the first day of the movie so my response will not be 100% accurate) My rating is a 7.

The movie was not completely clear, to me whethere or not conformily was a good thing ar if individuality was a good thing. It did touch on both subjects and did convince me that many people in a persons life will have an influence on them, but the person needs to differentiate betwwen the good advice and the bad.

In the movie we were introduced to many different poets. Also, when "Captin" takes the student and tells him that everyone can write poetry and hads him stand up in the front of the class and verbally write a poem, convinced me that we all can write and understand poetry.

I would show this movie in future classes, because it gives a break to the ordinary work and we still are learning the same themes and topics that we would if we did the normal work we do everyday.
