We have learned many things so far in this class from reviewing subject- verb agreement to reviewing basic grammar. One thing I have learned so far is to set up a blog. I have never been taught to set up a blog but love to keep a journal. A blog and a journal is almost the same thing except for a blog is public. It’s not hard to get set up it’s just easier if you are showed or even given directions.

A journal is the older version of a blog meaning a pen and paper. Since these days are practically all digital the blog is the way to go. At least on the computer there is spell check and grammar check and also word count. The hardest thing is you can’t watch TV while typing especially with a deadline.

My question would have to be about the databases in the library. How often would most people use some of the databases when most people use Google and can end up with a lot of the same answers?  A lot of people us Google for everyday questions and answers.

  1. I suppose the databases are primarily used for academic writing, whereas Google is more useful for quickly finding everyday information that doesn't necessarily have to be 100% accurate.
