We have now been in Environmental Health for two weeks/four class periods. So far we have gotten an overview of what to expect from this course and learned how to set up a blog. I have never been introduced to blogging before so this has all been new for me. I have learned how to create my blog, how to subscribe to others blogs, how to add gadgets, how to use Google Reader, and many other exciting things.
Our first week of class we got the basics down of creating our blog and also did a "Star Wars" activity which got us to think out of the box and compromise with our classmates. This past week has been all about refining our blogs. We have had to meet the requirements that our professor, Dr. V., has set for us which has taken me quite sometime. I am starting to become more familiar with the blogging process and more confident in what I am doing.
We haven't had much time to learn about the environment in these last two weeks but now that most of us are more familiar with what we are doing I think we will start getting into the health aspect of our environment. It was frustrating when we first started but I know that I am getting better and I have already learned a lot. I'm looking forward to learning more about our environment and becoming a pro at blogging.
