Taken from my university blog as part of the module i'm studying on personal knowledge & reflective practice.
“A definition of Blogs; Blogger - Blog is short for Web log. Blogs are publicly available web pages, with personal views and links expressing the opinions and observations of a particular person, usually on a specific topic or theme and are usually updated regularly reflecting the personality of the author. Blogs are online diaries/news forums that feature links to news items and stories from across the Internet's World Wide Web. Most blogs are headed by an individual called a blogger and many of these are those who want to bring their own views online.”
Over the past few months I have been keep this blog as a reflection of my study and knowledge I have gained so far. As I have made more and more entries it has occurred to me that once we have finish this module I hope to continue the blog as I progress. I see the blog as an evolving part of my study at university, as a way of writing down my personal experiences and knowledge and then opening my blog to others allowing them to view and comment on what I have written.
I think the hardest part for any blogger is to allow others to view what they have written as it opens up you to criticism and ridicule, I feel for my own blog to evolve then I will have to bite the bullet and allow others to read my views and feeling.Only time will tell what people make of this.
