This was my first blogging experience and I definitely learned a lot! Sometimes it was difficult making myself sit down everyday and write, but since I was blogging about two things that really interested me it made it easier. I think that if I ever chose to blog again then it would be a better experience because I would be choosing to blog on my own. I think blogging would be very beneficial in my future business and I will honestly most likely do it. Having a blog for my speech therapy business can allow current and future clients to see information and see what my experience is as a speech therapist. It could also give me insight into my clients if they choose to leave a comment. It would be a good way to get feedback from other speech therapists with experience or parents of clients. I think having a blog would also show my clients that I care about what I do and I want to do the best I can. I am also not trying to keep anything from my clients about my experience and that would be a good way for them to really get to know me, especially before they come in for their first session. 

I learn by doing things on my own and learning through trial and error, therefore I would be considered an intrapersonal learner. Since our blog had to be about our experience with figuring out two Web 2.0 tools on our own, then that was right down my alley. I like to be given enough information about something that I can figure out what to do, but I like to figure out a lot of it on my own. This module was perfect for that and I really liked how I got to talk about my experiences with the tools whether they worked or not. I don't like when a teacher expects a student to do perfectly on something, and I think this project gave the students an open field that they didn't feel had to be perfect, it was just about their experience. I learn more by doing things like this rather than everything being about the "grade". Overall I learned a lot about blogging, video blogging, Web 2.0 tools, and the two tools that I chose!

I am really excited I got to share my experiences with you about both blogging and using the Web 2.0 tools. Because of this, I will continue to use Pinterest and Skype as well as blog in the future. They will all be beneficial to me and I will recommend all of them to anyone and everyone. I don't know a job or career in which any of these would not be beneficial. I think the most beneficial one to me in the future will be blogging and I am excited to see where it leads me. This was a great learning experience for me in so many ways and I hope from reading my blog, it was for you as well!
