Over the course of this Networked Learning experience, I have actively engaged with my peers and others in the learning community by sharing knowledge, participating and answering questions in class, and providing feedback and comments on many fellow classmates’ blogs. I participated in every class discussion as I find class discussion, especially in education classes, is where students learn the mot, by sharing their own insights, critically thinking and expanding their own minds.
The main way I contributed to others’ learning was through my own blogs and by commenting on other blogs. I found myself neglecting the Discord channel, which was my fault, and I could have done more.

Commenting on Classmates’ Blogs
I have regularly read and commented on classmates’ blog posts, offering constructive feedback, asking thoughtful questions, and sharing additional resources. This ongoing interaction has helped foster discussion and deeper understanding around course topics.
I commented on three people’s blogs the most with them being Muhammad’s, Kadie’s and Trey’s.
Here are just a few examples of those comments:
By consistently engaging in these activities, I have contributed to a collaborative learning environment. However, my network learning experience was hindered by only sticking to the blogs and classroom. I did not expand my network in a wider net, due to my own personal life, time constraints, family, other spring classes that. I did not give the Network Learning Experience the time it really needed to flourish like others did, by creating resources, participating in the class Discord channel.
Last blog of the class. It has been a blast, I enjoyed blogging my experiences and my learning project.
