Blog vs Tutorial

I liked the idea of online tutorials, as i felt it was very appropriate for the unit and what we were studying. It helped show me how much the internet is/or can be used for everyday life, including university studies. However, i felt that discussion was lacking, possibly because not everyone was online at the same time, or because there was no tutor or leader to lead the discussion. However, i found this an interesting way of communicating with my tutorial class.

Cyborg

I think that every one of us, in some ways, is a cyborg. Wether we admit it or not, the majority of us in today's society rely on the internet for so much. From completing tutorials! to paying bills online or booking flights online (which is also the cheapest way of doing it these days), the internet seems to be constantly consuming us.

Unit evaluation

I thoroughly enjoyed this unit, as it was a whole other opening in feminism understanding, and understanding of cyberspace - both two very important things in society. I have done many other women studies units, but none focused on this side of feminism. It was very interesting and very useful to know and understand.
