Q. According to Alex Reid, what are the benefits of doing an online blog for a writing class? What are your feelings about keeping a blog, good and bad?
A. According to Alex Reid’s essay on blogs, one of the benefits of students participating in an online blog for a writing class is allowing the students to explore and develop internal motivations for writing. Reid says that because blogs allow the user to control the subject matter, it makes it easier for them to write because they have the self motivation to do so. Reid explains that once a student has found internal motivation, it makes it easier for them to write.
A. I personally think that keeping a blog is a good idea because it will help me to find my internal motivation for writing. I think that by doing this I can greatly improve my writing ability as well making writing essays easier in the future.
