What I Learned Today in WRI227

to About

    Introduction  

Welcome to my blog!

 

For three weeks during the course, I will be documenting my experience from that week's course material. Each of the three blog posts will of course focus on a different week in the course!

 

Within each blog post, I will be discussing what I learned in the lecture, what I found interesting in the readings, and overall what I learned that week about social media and content creation!

​

At the end of the each post will be a comment box to express reactions and share ideas. Please feel free to post in these!
