What skills have I acquired?
Throughout the course, all teachings have been conveyed online, where we have to read all passages and additional information of weekly topics by ourselves. Speaking of which, it has polished my skills of time management and work planning, as I had to organize and prioritize online materials and accomplish the tasks before deadlines. It has made me self-conscious about my own learning process and study plan, in which I had to keep track of my progress all the time, as well as summarizing and jotting down the key points of every topic for writing my blog post.
Better utilizing online resources
In addition, the course has manifested to me how to utilize online resources in the most efficient way. By engaging in the online communities of ELE and MOOC, I have comprehended different ideas and acquired knowledge of digital business within a short period of time, as the texts are comparatively short and precise. Added to that, whenever I came across some abstract or difficult concepts, I would watch the attached videos or website links, where I have been able to better understand the theories behind. Thus, I have learnt how to unravel some puzzling or confusing ideas by making good use of different online resources.
Writing and commenting on blog posts
In essence, I have learnt about how to write a captivating blog post and appropriately comment on others. Before taking this course, I have never started my own blog or developed a habit of reading informative and academic blog posts. Yet, this course has taught me how to meticulously outline a blog post and add in engrossing details, such as videos from YouTube or images, which I have acquired the skills of searching and screening for suitable materials online for others to better explain my own ideas. On top of that, the course has also given me ideas of how to comment on other’s blog posts – expressing my feedback and offering opinions with academic reference.
