Exploration. One
of the things I learned with Edublogging is exploring, exploring answers for the
questions my mind raised regarding the topic we were supposed to write about,
exploring details that I could put in my blog so I could clearly elaborate information
about the topic.

Deduction . The famous Sherlock Holmes makes use of this method to solve mysteries. Deduction denotes that a general part
is given then specific examples are provided. I did deduction so that general
facts that are complexly stated will be easily understood by the readers by
breaking it down to specific details that are much easier to comprehend.

Understanding. In doing the blog, I have to also learn how to understand
certain mechanics and principles regarding the topic we should write about, since
I believe that a writer could write more if she understands everything
regarding her topic, if she lacks the understanding then her writing would be
dull and lifeless due to the fact that she did not even know what she is
writing about.
Blogging. The
main thing I learned in Edublogging is of course, learning how to make and use
a blog. Ever since I was in high school I wrote a lot of stories (you could ask
that to my classmates) but I always write in a notebook, whenever I want my
friends to read it, it takes longer because a friend should finish it first
before lending it to another, from that time on, I’ve always wanted to share my
works, then I read other people’s blog, I wanted to make one for sharing and I felt
very lucky that we were taught by our instructor.
Laissez
faire. a French word that meant “let it be” or “free”, I believe
that when we are blogging we are free to share our thoughts and we are free in
how we want it to look like, but we should remember though, that the product of
our labor always reflects the type of person we are. (And also remember that
even though we are free in writing and expressing, there are always
restrictions, such as posting things that are not ours without crediting.)
Outlining. I’m
not pretty much an artistic person, but since there was a contest for the most
creative blog, I’ve tried to do designing and outlining. That was not my only
goal, of course, not only for that personal purpose, but also I tried to make
it look bubbly for my readers to have fun in reading my blog.
Giving. The
main purpose I had in my mind when blogging, is to give or share information
that could help other people, as I’ve said I wanted a blog so I could share
facts and details and at the same time hear some constructive criticisms that
could help me develop my skill in writing.
Grammar. The
most important thing to apply in writing is of course grammar; proper use of
grammar could relay information in a much convenient and comprehensible way for
the readers.
Imagination. Ever
since I was in high school, I had a pretty big imagination, and this time
through edu blogging I could use it to accentuate my creativity skills.

Novel . Novel meant original, the major sin in
writing, for me, is copying or plagiarism, I always make it a point that I synthesize
information from a lot of books so I could make my own version of explaining,
as Wilson
Mizner stated “If you copy from one author its plagiarism; if you copy from
many it's research.”
Gaining. In
blogging, you gain comments, followers and sometimes respondents, that could
help you in nurturing your skills.
Those were the things I learned in
Edublogging and I still want to do blogging and be a productive blogger .
