First thing I have to say: THIS IS WAY BETTER THAN A PAPER!!!
I didn’t spend as much time on this project, yet I learned the same amount that I would have writing a paper. Also having classmates looking on my posts, so awesome. The informality of this assignment allowed me to blossom. Blogging is becoming a popular trend, and now that I have a blog, I can write about sports 
!!! Now I can write my blog about my Lions hopes (trades, offseason, etc.) Jean Valentine is not talked about much, and on MEL I was limited to about 3 sources. But other than that little obstacle I found this project great. Another thing I liked about the blog was pacing. Instead of working ONLY on the weekend, I could work easily throughout the week. With a paper, I was stressed to do at least 5 hours of work, but no work over the week. Honestly I do not see how to improve this project, because I found the post work fair and fun. One thing I may change is finding other blogs to comment on, because there is almost no way to submit a comment without creating another account. Anyway I see a bright future for this blog assignment.
I am glad to know the blog project was successful for you. I like the way you took full advantage of the flexibility of the project–for example digging far and wide for your Old Poet post because it seemed of particular interest to you. The informality let us all focus on content w/o having to worry about style and MLA and I think that has been freeing for many students. Fine work all the way through and I see you have already begun on your Shakespeare posts!
