Reflection about blog( I do not care even if my grammar is wrong)

While I did blog in the semester, I was hard a little bit. The most difficult thing was posting until 4 clock. In fact, I had problems with posting on time because I should do another assignments for another classes. Sometimes, I couldn't post on time, so I was worried about my grade.
In my opinion, it was a hard thing for some students for posting until four clock because some students were working in the weekend. If they missed deadline, what they should do? If they posted late, could they get same grade with students who posted their writing on time? I thought that professor should think about it seriously.

It was a main problem, but I didn't have a trouble with writing 250 words because that thing was the most easy thing to me. When I used this blog, I could check grammar errors. So, I felt comfortable more than writing on papers. I could write more than 500 words. It was not difficult.The most interesting thing was checking classmate's blog because I could learn many things. For example, I could know how classmates could get good grade from their blog. Most of them were having a good blog, so I could check and revise my blog. Moreover, I could share opinions and knowledge with them. In my personal opinion, it was the most greatest part of blog.

The most great thing was that blog was comfortable because I felt comfortable as compared with group discussion in the class. I was very shy, so I could speak and show my opinion freely on the blog. That was good for me.

(I could not understand what four question in blackboard meant because I didn't use blog while I took any classes in the Laguardia.)

My answer of the last question was no. I could not provide various things to people who saw my blog. Moreover, I didn't have time to keep my blog. If this class would be finished, I would remove this blog. I didn't want to get pressured because of this blog. While I took this class, I was very tired because I should post writing on my blog until four clock. It was very stressful thing.(do not be upset. I could have freedom of speech)

Optional comments:(it is not related to questions. It's up to you whether you read or not).
If you could not understand my writing because of grammar, I could not do anything for you.
I'm not American. How much do you expect for my English skills?????? Even if I would get tutoring from writing center, I could not write perfect English as Native Americans. I still would make same error and I should get tutoring until my writing would be better.(I am not sure when my writing would be improved. You said that I made same grammar mistake in my research paper. I would try to improve it, but I could not be perfect. (You maybe could find another mistake or error of grammar in my research papers even if I would get tutoring.)

Evaluation(only one person)

Actually, I could not evaluate Jan Michael becuase he doesn't put his draft and he didn't finished it. So, I chose other classmate,Erlisa Koci who I chose myself.

1. Her thesis: what exactly is global warming? A common definition is the dramatically increasing amount of carbon dioxide which is harming the environment. Sure, this is true, but exactly how is this happening?(global warming)

2.For example, carrots are healthy, but if you eat too much of it you’ll eventually become orange. Yeah laugh, but it’s true. The same applies to carbon dioxide. Since the industrial revolution began in the 1850’s, human processes have caused emissions of this. (first of paragraph in her essay). This is good example because her example is very easy to understand her main point.

3. In fact, I could not find of any parts what was boring because she explained how and why global warming was happening and why ice began to melt. It was interesting because my topic was also about global warming. I got useful information from her.

4.she indicated Al gore's An inconvenient truth documentaryas her resource. but she has not another resource about what she mentioned.

5.No. she didn't have a fictional stroy.

6. In fact, I don't know because my grammer skills is not also good. How can I evaluate other's grammer skills even if I cannot check my grammer myself? however, in my opinion, her grammer is good because I don't feel disturbed because of grammer while I read her papers.

Free Topic.

I'm very happy that I can write whatever I want. Until now, I still feel uncomfortable to use blogs because I have to use computers. Until now, this class focuses on environment. I am learning about environment during I take this class. Frankly speaking, I don't care about environment after I take this class because I have many things what I should care. I have to care my grade, my future, and my ambition for my goal. Actually, I think that other people think like me. Most people recognize a problem of environment, however they cannot do any activities for environment because they need to worry themselves before they think other things.

Do not blame me. It is true. True is sometimes uncomfortable to us. I like Al gore's title of the book, inconvenience truth. Do not pretend to environmentalist. Even if you do not care environment, scientists and politicians care instead of you. Nothing can be changed even if you care environment. This is my thinking, but I'm not mention until now because this blogs assignments is not asking for my personal opinion about environment.

Then, you might say that even if it is true, I can do small things. Yes. I can do small things for environment. However, classmates, tell me frankly. How many time do you spend for caring environment? How many people do recycle everyday? You should care midterm examination or any other assignments for other classes. Do you think you can spend your time for caring environment so much more than your exams? Maybe answer is no. You will say yes. I guess so.
What I should care is my own problems. Global warming is serious problems, but it will be not happening tomorrow. We should our own problem. If we cannot care our own problems, we can not care other problems too. I want to give advice for you. You should care your problem.
After you solve your own problems, you can solve other problem. I'm very selfish, but I'm also pratical and real person. You cannot tell that my thinking is li

you can ignore what I say. You might think my speech is sound of a dog. I don't care. You ignore. I will say.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ESJoTTFAz-Y (Netherlands flooding 3D/Holanda Inundada)

My research paper.

My topic is global warming in Netherlands. I will discuss about how global warming can be affected in Netherlands and what is the result of global warming. As I investigate relationship between Netherlands and global warming, I find that flooding is major problems in Netherlands.
Thus, I will analyze a factor of flooding in Netherlands.



In fact, global warming is major problem and many people care about it in the world. We already know the fact, but I want to show one specific country. When I just say global warming, it seems to vague. Then, We cannot feel how much global warming is serious directly.
However, If one country is mentioned, we can feel that how much global warming is serious directly. Moreover, my research papers will be helpful to provide information for people who don't recognize or don't care about environment about global warming, such as cause or effect of global warming.
By doing so, I hope that the people begin to know about global warming in Netherlands and I also want that they look for a solution themselves for Netherlands and our neighborhood.

Until now, I just have some articles from websites. I have various articles about global warming in Netherlands. Moreover, I gather some charts and graphs, so it can be helpful to understand how much global warming affects to Netherlands. I don't check books or magazines, however I will add some materials from books.

I want to show how much global warming affect to Netherlands and why global warming is happened. I also want to demonstrate a solution what politicians and scientists in Netherlands are researching. It will be my thesis.

My topic (#blog 7)

I'm going to write about global warming. Recently, I see that a big ice begins to melt rapidly from National geography magazines. As the magazine mentions, it causes from climate changing.
I want to write why global warming is happening and how it can be affected to environment and our life. I have my own resources here:

1.http://lwf.ncdc.noaa.gov/oa/climate/globalwarming.html#q1
This site is about Frequently Asked Questions for global warming. This site provides all information about global warming and it also offers basic knowledge about global warming.
I think this site is good because most of thing in the site are my quetions about global warming.
Thus, I conclude that I can use and I also can provide to information for people who do not have any ideas about global warming.

2.http://www.sciencedaily.com/articles/a/antarctic_ice_sheet.htm. Here is several articles about global warming. This website has many materials about global warming, such as Antarctic ice or climate changing. Moreover, this site has some lists about global warming, so I can check and get various informations about global warming from other sites. This site focuses on ice melting mainly more than the first site.Thus, it can be good examples about global warming in my research papers, so that's why I choose this site.

3.http://www.wanttoknow.info/globalwarmingmediaarticles-20-20
This site includes how many people care about environment. It especially deals with how experts and politicians have recognization about environment. In my opinion, politicians and scientists are people who should care environment more than citizens because they can carry out a useful policy for environment. Thus, I think that this topic can be used how many people care and what people are doing for protecting environment.

Reflection

Actually, When I took the class in the first time, I wondered what was this class about.
I knew what was ecology course, but I actually didn't understand why I should take the class.
Before I took the class, I didn't think about environment seriously because I was too busy too care of myself. However, the class made me changed so much.

Actually, what I impressed was Al Gore's book and presentation. Al gore researched various materials and reminded importance of environment. Of course, I knew environment was important and I had to protect environment. However, I didn't care so much because I believed that somebody would do that and that was not my job. However, Al gore made me realized why I should concern about environment and what I should do for environment. After I took this class, I realized and understood about environment deeply. Moreover, I could have responsibilities for protection environment. I cared much time how I protect environment. For example, when I drink juice, I'm not throw it away. I try to put bottle to recycle.
As like this, this class taught and reminded me how environment was important in our life.

Moreover, I liked presentation about buddhism because I knew what was role as human beings in this planet. In fact, when I was taking class in school where was located in Korea, I learned about Buddhism. However, I didn't like that because it was too boring to me.I just had to sit all days and took a note what professor talked. However, the presentation made me interested because I could find any interesting materials for me in websites or blogs. I could do anything myself. Moreover, buddhism taught me how I ignored environment and how the planet where I live was essencial to me. Thus, the presentation also provided a lesson to much for me.

Moreover, blogs was helpful to me. At the first time, I hated the blog because I didn't use computers and I didn't want to work on the weekend(sorry, but this was my actual thinking).
However, I realized why professor made me worked for blog. I found blog was interesting after a few days. I could share my thinking with other classmates and I could read what they thought.
I also could give my comment to them and I could share information with them. I could know how many people thought differently. Thus, blog also taught me useful lesson what I should learn as a member of classes. That was my reflection for this class.
