Blog reflections as a journal

Microsoft Office 2011
My reflections as I travel on this learning journey are important as it is a way of assessing myself, my fellow students and to my lecturer that I am gaining the intrinsic knowledge I need.  This is a visible of element of Constructivism as it is personal learning.


By reviewing my blog and my fellow travellers' blog we are in a cooperative of learning.  I may see something in their blog of ideas/learning that I did not realise or understand which pushes me forward in my thinking.  This lesson also would be applied to my own learners as a teacher - stand to the side and let them learn from each other. Connectivism is an element here as I don't know everything and can look at other blogs to learn more. Is Cognitivism here as well because my reflections map my learning journey? Behaviourism - this is a long shot but because I keep returning to the blog and reflecting am I learning a learning behaviour?  Diversity is still supported as we work our way through different activities with support from the forum along the way - everyone works to their learning speed.  As we continue to keep posting to the blog we become more confident in our skills with the creating links, inserting images/video links and researching on the internet.  The learning journey continues onwards and upwards.
