Week 4: Weekly Reflection

-

            Each week, I am not only becoming more familiar with digital tools and platforms but also gaining confidence and comfort in using them✌. The consistent exposure and knowledge have significantly enhanced my skills and ease with these digital resources. The Web 2.0 Course continuously encourages me to explore these platforms, not only as a side hustle but also as a way to relax and engage in purposeful activities. This inspiration has sparked several ideas that I can pursue while remaining behind the camera. 

            In the coming days, I hope to embark on a project that brings fulfillment, happiness, and a sense of purpose. By leveraging what I've learned in the course, I aim to create something meaningful that resonates with my passions and interests🎈🎊.

At this semester stage, I'm feeling exhausted and battling self-doubt. The upcoming prelims in the Spring require early preparation, which adds to my concerns. Balancing this with my regular coursework seems overwhelming, and I'm unsure how to handle it. Thoughts like "Will I manage?" persistently trouble me. I wish to have a break to prepare for my prelims with a free mind!  I wish I had 30 hours a day!  I wish I could manage stress, get long breaks to relax, and focus on upcoming exams!

Week 1: Not my first Blog!

I wrote my first blog a few years ago, in 2016 when I reflected on my teaching experiences in relation to parental interactions. While working in a private school, I found that parents put so much pressure on young minds while ignoring the importance of play, and interpersonal connections while making children just inclined towards STEM fields.   I published my blog in a competition and secured a second position. Through the Web-Based Learning 2/0 course, I hope to regain my confidence to write more.  Sourced from:  https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/parental-pressure-how-expectations-shape-childrens-lives-om-annamraju/

Week 3: Shared Awareness in a Developing Context

-

For years, when social media and internet access were limited and print and TV media were state-controlled in Pakistan, people revered the military and the state. They had to believe the official narratives. However, with increased internet access and social media presence, a "shared awareness" has emerged as people have become more informed and critical of political dynamics, better understanding the true state of affairs. Reading  “The Latent Community in Every Webpage”  by  Clay Shirky  made me reflect on the current political climate in Pakistan. The recent elections saw the highest voter turnout in history, driven by a shared awareness of the importance of voting rights. People are now more engaged and recognize the importance of their voting rights. This change shows a more informed and active population, thanks to the shared information and discussions on social media and the internet.
