Well, here we are again. It is the end of another term for
those of us in grad school at Troy University, so I am here to, once again,
close out this blog. As far as I know, I do not have another class that requires
a blog, but who knows, I may continue this in the future anyway!
I have really enjoyed writing this blog. I love writing in general,
and being able to show a little bit of personality in my writing is always fun!
The topics I wrote about always got my mind working, and I have learned a lot
about things that I never would have without this class!
This term I have learned a lot about emerging media and the
importance of staying current on technology. It has forced me to think about
topics that I never really have before. I think my favorite topics that we have
been able to talk about are Social Media and Politics, which are two of my favorite
things, and surprisingly Crowdsourcing. The prevalence of crowdsourcing today
is something that I never realized. It is almost everywhere on social media and
traditional media, and is a great way to get the public involved in a company. There
are crowdsourcing campaigns that I saw growing up, wanting to participate in,
but I never realized that those were crowdsourcing until this class.
Another favorite topic of mine? Citizen journalism. While I knew
that I had a few strong opinions on the topic, it was very interesting to see
what my classmates thought. That is one thing that is great about this program,
you still get to have discussions with your classmates even though we are all
in different places!
I have greatly enjoyed this class, and I look forward to continuing
on in my studies!
