Coming into this class, I didn’t know what to expect. I wasn’t sure what the goals of the course would be. But now that I’m through the class, I really enjoyed my experience.
I learned how to blog and to use Twitter in this class, and I plan on using both of these experiences throughout my career. Both of these assignments apply to what I’m going to be doing in the future. As a journalist, I’m going to be using both Twitter and blogging in my line of work.
I do wish we had done a little more work with Linkedin. I thought those projects were a little rushed, and I felt as though I didn’t get the most I could have gotten out of this site. I don’t really have any other assignments I wished were covered. Since I didn’t really have any expectations for this course coming in, I can’t really think of anything I would have wanted to be included in this course.
I think my favorite assignment was the social media analysis paper. The topic I chose was Rage Against the Machine for Christmas Number One. I liked this assignment the most because not only was the campaign to get the song “Killing in the Name” by RATM the number one single in the U.K., but they are also one of my favorite bands.
I definitely liked Kelly Ambrose’s blog the best. I thought she had some of the best posts out of everyone in the class. I especially like her social media analysis paper on the campaign that Hanson ran. I think it’s very funny that Hanson is her favorite band.

I agree with the fact that we should have played with LinkedIn a little more. I feel like we only talked about it a little bit and then moved on to something else.
ReplyDeleteAnd thanks for the Hanson shout out. I suppose your blogs weren't half bad either :P
I also think the blogging and Twitter were very helpful. I had Twitter but barely used it before this class but I’ve used it a lot more this semester. Besides the BMA, my favorite assignment was the Social Media Paper as well since I had an interesting topic.

ReplyDeleteI totally forgot to mention Twitter in my blog! Tweeting was also something I've never done until this semester, along with blogging.
ReplyDeleteI also think that blogging and Twitter were very helpful. Although I dislike twitter a lot it was nice to get to know the features that it offered.
ReplyDeleteLearning how to use Twitter was great. I never knew how much you could do on it before this class. I like how you can follow celebrites because you can actually see how they talk and act in their real lives.
