My Reflection On This Class~

During my time spent in my media literature class, I think I've learned a few useful skills such as the knowledge of how to use wikispaces to create a wiki page. I doubt I'll use that skill for anything other than my own project though. But I at least now know how to make my own wiki page. I know I'll need it. Another thing I've learned is how to write a properly formulated and organized blog post.

Now I know I'm forgetting a bunch of things I've learned here but, rest assured, Mr. Hainstock's teaching was not in vain. I'm sure I'll remember it five minutes once I'm out the classroom door... It always happens.

However I did learn a few things I'll probably never use in real life. For instance I know how to pick advertisements apart and find the techniques of persuasion they use. I can't see me ever using this though. I can also kinda write paragraphs in that ridiculous mechanical format we learned. That's part of the reason why I got an initial 60 out of 100 in this class.

But overall, I enjoyed this class. The iPads were nice and a large part of why this class was so colorful to me but they weren't the only factor. One of the other factors in play involved the fact that Mr. Hainstock is a teacher who actually doesn't speak with a barely concealed montotonic tone half the time. Next time I see him and I happen to be carrying my lunch, I'll throw apples at him because he seems to like them so much. ;)

So, long story short, I really enjoyed this class and I feel I learned a few worthwhile things that I simply can't friggin' remember at this moment. I wish this semester wasn't almost done. I'm gonna miss my classes.

Guten tag und lebewohl, media lit. I'll miss you.
