The reason i decided to take this course is because I wanted to learn about English in a new and unique way. Deciding to take the alternative route this year is exciting, I think this will be a great way to improve computer skills and to further my horizons on a different way of learning. I chose this course also to expand my knowledge.
What I am excited about this year is that I will be getting a chance like no other to learn new things through my computer and/or my phone instead of just from an ordinary text book. There are some parts of me that are nervouse about doing this though, to allow anyone to look at what you're doind wrong in an essay or little mistakes on a project. I am also nervous when speaking in front of a small or large grouping of people. When the opportunity presents it seld i wont pass it up, but the fact of just standing infront of people you may or may not know is slightly nerve-racking. One of my goals for this course is to learn something new i might use on a day to day basis or just even once in a while. Another goal I hope to accomplish is receiving a good grade while learning and trying something new.
I expect my knowledge to improve by learning new skills and an all-around different way of viewing school. Maybe by viewing school in this new way it can make school more intriguing causing it to be easyer to consume the knowledge being taught. The reason Richard Cory never would have surprised an open source learning network is because reading it off a computer is different from hearing it out loud, where there is emotion and changes in tone. Where one thing can go from happy to heart throbbing in a matter of seconds. Reading it much differant from hearing it.
