I have loved being able to create and manage my own Personal Learning Environment (PLE). I plan on keeping my own blog after this class is over for my personal use. I love the idea of having a record that I can share with everyone. I found it hard to learn in the beginning how to do everything that I wanted and I was very unsure about coding in HTML. After hours of trial and error, I finally did figure out how to do everything that I wanted to. I still want my own personal blog to look more polished and professional instead of amateurish, but I am confident in my abilities if not that I will have the time to do it. I was most proud that I was able to figure out how to make 3 columns and make my own header and not just use the preset formats that are found on other sites. I still could not figure out how to make the header look right or be the right size and I was clueless on why the background that I tried to put in wouldn't format right. I found that I was spending a lot of time that I did not have on it, so I had to stop myself from working anymore on perfecting it so I could do some other things. I loved doing it though. I plan on having a blog or a wiki for my future classroom and think that it is a very valuable resource to have for students and parents.
