What's the Alternative?

To be completely honest with everyone, I don't believe there's a much better alternative to doing the blog.  I'll be the first to admit that I don't always like blogging after a week's worth of intensive homework assignments, but what else could we do?  I understand that the university wants to make sure that we are keeping track of our journey using a reflective, encompassing tool.  I feel that this is important, and certainly support the premise.  The one suggestion that I have is to make sure that there are no "double up" questions.  In other words, as long as I'm reflecting on something different every week, my attention will be kept.  I start to feel as if the assignments are a little redundant when the prompt is constantly, "What did you learn this week, and how can it be used in your class?"  I believe it would be more beneficial to all if we focused on one particular aspect from the week's assignments.  Having said as much, I feel like the cohort has been set up very well, and hope that my comments are taken as a suggestion as opposed to criticism.
