This fall semester, a group of twelve students, ten sophomores and two juniors, w
ere placed into the Online Communications course. At first, the students did not know what to expect in this class. After figuring out what they would be doing, they soon realized this class differed from other elective courses. Here are the roles the students played throughout the fall semester while participating in Burton's Blog.
Sophomore Austin Q., and Junior Michael M., had the pleasure of being technical assistants who would fix any technical difficulties that
occurred. Sophomores Makayla M., and Tiffany A., and Junior Tori F., had the honor of being advertisers that would come up with new ideas each week to advertise the blog. Sophomores Paloma B., and Kim H.,
managed the blog's appearance by fixing any highlighting errors and the updating its appearance. Sophomore Haley Q., took on the role of being the photographer for the blog, taking any photos that were needed. Sophomores Alex C., Megan D., and Haley H. took on the role of editing the students' articles before they were sent to Mrs. Bias for final review and publication.
All the students that were in the fall semester of Online Communications have enjoyed
being in this class and contributing to the blog. Makayla M. said, "This class has created friendships that will last a lifetime." Haley Q agreed, saying, "This class has made many memories, and we all will certainly miss being part of the blog."
Every student agrees that this class has helped them gain confidence and become more engaged in what is happening around the school. It has also improved all of our writing skills.
The 2016 fall semester blog students wants to wish all the new comers good luck and hope they can keep the the blog as interesting as we have.
We all suggest if anyone enjoys writing and being creative to join the Online Communications class. The students in this class have learned the true meaning of teamwork and because of that we have bonded as a whole.
