Design ITThe term blog is a short form which is used to refer to a weblog. It is a website which haspublished information that is on the World Wide Web. A blog is a very useful resource in helping to track and record the activities in which an individual does. A blog can also help an individual in nurturing their reflection and writing skills. If an individual can nurture these skills they will be able to become good writers and communicators as they talk or refer to a specific issue. The will also be able to remember and reflect on various experiences in which they have undergone and learning from them. This week deliverables were to define and understand blogs and why they are needed to aid in reflection. All the blogs will build up on each other to ensure they give a descriptive view of the whole venture.A blog can help an individual share their own personal experience in referring to a specific issue or topic. A blog enables individuals to detail the learning objectives which they areable to achieve throughout the course of this unit. In the beginning of the unit the lessons were very inspiring.
