Metacognation

1)The activities have taken a good impact on me, because I have learned so many new things to do, that I never had before. The little activities we have done so far with Macbeth, have helped me find out what the play was about, before we actually finished the movie, so that was a bonus I thought. The activities have also helped me learn how to do different things on my blog. Even though it doesn't look like much, I've still put a lot of time and effort into it.

2)For our blogging, when we used WEB 2.0 I didn't really find it necessary to use, we can easily just type it up in our blog new posting ( like here) and do it that way, instead of typing it on the word document and copying and pasting it. Even though they are both easy, it's just less work without having to use the word application. The most helpful thing about using word, was when we had to make the word puzzle like assignment on wordle. All we had to do was press a couple keys and then it basically did all the work for you. The activity I think that helped me make a sense of the story Macbeth, was when each of our table groups did a little skit on it, and interpreted the story in our own little way. Gave it a twist if you must say. I think it helped making us read and watch the movie because it first helped us use our imagination and gives us all the details it doesn't show in the movie and then by watching the movie it shows us how they actually meant by what they were saying, and it shows us their emotions and how dramatic their lives were back then.

3)I have learned and progressed a lot since last year. I participate more with my peers then I did in previous, because I'm comfortable with the students around me, because a lot of them are my friends. For next term, I'm going to work on speaking more orally in class, and work on my presentation skills.

4) Looking at my work, I think my blogging is one of my strengths. It's easier for me to do well in school when I know what I'm doing, and when I don't I can just look it up on a website. This will hopefully help me next year, if we continue blogging, or use some other source of cyber assignments, because i'll be more experienced with it, so i'll know what to do, and i'll be even more comfortable working with computers.
