The discussion week of Feb. 28 through March 6th was very interesting. I was hoping folks would come up with a variety of advertisements to discuss, and you did just that. I noticed quite a few diverse advertisements, and the discussion you all had about them did not disappoint.
I truly hope this weeks discussion will be equally as interesting, considering I have given you much more freedom. I'm sure you all will do great this week. But I must remark, the week of Feb. 28th through March 6th was one of the most active discussions we have had in our class. There was more participation during that week, mostly about the 'seductive' advertisements, but it was lively participation nonetheless.
Side Note: I must comment on your discussions over the course of the semester so far. Some of the concepts covered in the text have been quite difficult to grasp. Each of you have done a magnificent job of understanding the course concepts and explaining them on your respective blogs. Even when there is ambiguity in the book, you all have rallied together, read over each others blogs and understood the concepts fairly well. I keep reading comments like, "I was unclear about the concept until I read your post. You did a great job of explaining the concept". YES YES YES!!! This is exactly what this blogging thing is all about. It is about creating community, engaging in diverse ideas and helping each other out to understand difficult concepts. This is EXACTLY what I had hoped for my Comm 41 courses. Both of my Comm 41 classes has impressed me. Good job everyone!
