My experience of having a blog
I have enjoyed using a blog. It is helpful to know that work done in class can be saved on the computer. Having this blog will actively keep track of all work done. Having a classwork blog allows for a student to have their own creativity. It is a outlet to show the creativity of people. When we first did the blogs last year I learned something new about the web that I shared with my family. Now that they have discovered blogging they love it. Blogging has also expanded my mindset to opportunities of the internet. Blogging has made this class more interesting.

Good and Bad Web Design Features Review
A web site should have a nice clean a precise look to it it shouldn't be jumbled up in disarray. For instance if your website has a distracting background that make your text unreadable then that needs to change. Because the people who are going to be reading it won't be able to do so with ease. A website is supposed to be a helpful resource for people to find information on. So if your website has colored text on it make sure that people will know it isn't a link. Making people wander on a website isn't making your website productive. I have learned that these are very important things to do and watch out for when creating a web page.Even If you believe that your web page looks good to you , still check it for common trends of bad websites. You might like for there to be blinking pictures , dead links, or large pictures, But the people who should be benefiting from your website don't and will immediately close the page. For more information on this subject, here are the links

Glider Project
I have learned that building a prototype is not an easy process.I built the 1902 glider , It was a process that involved patience and dedication. If you were not careful you would have come across many problems. The glider needed to be focused on, because everything needed to be precise and right on point with the instructions given. I had to be sure that everything was set to the right measurements. If I had the wrong measurements for any thing I would have to re- do the whole section of the prototype. It was necessary to be precise because otherwise the project would be looking very messy and unorganized. The directions were very important to the outcome of your project. If you didn't read the directions exactly then you might have missed and important step.
What have I learned About Blogging
I have learned that blogging is an alternative method of keep track with the things you are doing in life. It is sort of like a on-line diary. It can be shared with the entire world or a group of friends. Using this kind of site can advance your writing capabilities. On here You are not limited to what you can write or express through writing. People use blogs to help get there point across to the public. Such as in politics blogs can play a major role in there careers by letting the public know what there thoughts or take is on a certain subject. Blogs can be used in a variety of ways and for a variety of reasons.
