Communication

Communication is a vital tool for any classroom experience. The blogging portion of this management class provide a way for students to communicate outside the classroom. There are a number of reasons why I believe this assignment was beneficial to me and i am sure to many others as well.

For one I believe this was a great way to communicate with others in the class. By reading others' blog posts I started to learn more about my classmates and then gave my opinion by posting comments. Also, I believe through the blog was the best way to review the material learned in class. By writing about an activity done in class that day, I could apply the managements terms with what we have done in class. I think the informal writing of a blog, makes the assignment more fun as opposed to lets say writing a short essay.

The blog also lets you read about the real life management experiences of others. By reading how others utilize management processes, I could then try and apply to my life where I see fit. I think the blog is a great part of the course that should be kept for future semesters. When the class sees their final grades they will see the benefit of the blogging assignment and how it has impacted their final grade. It takes much pressure off the often high pressure exams, which I think could be better made up to analyze the various management processes.
