Open Source Learning??

Week one evaluation:
I just ended my first week of school and let me tell you.. it has been crazy! On my first day of school, I was required to make a blog and begin my adventure into "open source learning." My reaction of course was: How do I make a blog? I already have to post on this blog? An essay the first day of school! The most important of these questions was, "What is open source learning?" If you didn't know, this type of learning is one focused through a computer and blogging. Part of this experience is also looking at your fellow classmates blogs and commenting on their posts and also the posts that the teacher asks you to comment on. I was quite weary of this class, which was supposed to be an AP Literature course and was confused with all the changes. Before you know it, I was assigned to make videos and post them. All of this was new to me, but is definitely teaching me things I wish I would have learned before. It also inspired the creation of this blog, which is not going to be a gruesome and boring blog. I am telling you this, because this is the start of my own personal blog. A blog of creativity and questions, of pictures and videos, of gopro's and adventure, and of love and uniqueness. All inspired from my original blog apenglishdanielblack.blogspot.com and of course the unlimited potentials of blogging and sharing ideas. STAY TUNED. And if you want to check out my photography look up danny_blackie on instagram! I'm excited to test the possibilities of this class and also the art of blogging.
