FINAL BLOG POST

1)- The revised version of our class was definitely better than the first because we had more things to do. It wasn't the same old boring english class, we were actively learning in a new way and I felt more engaged in the class. 

2)-I actually looked forward to working in clark rather than the spartan complex because expanding the environment helped me understand the class more. The reason i think i enjoyed the new version of the class was because it was something new and fresh to look forward to. Also, it wasn't stuffy, boring and hot like the class in the spartan complex where it was almost impossible to pay attention.

3)- I liked everything about the Clark classroom. It was air conditioned, had alot of gadgets to work with and overall just helped the learning aspect of the class. I liked that we could use computers as writing boards, communicate with each other in new ways rather than just writing notes from lectures all day. I really liked being able to use computers in class to do work. I believe that engaging students in new fresh ways will always result in the students being more active in the class and willing to participate more because it wont be the same thing over and over again.
