Blog that means something to me, Blog Prompt #2

Hello,

This week we have been asked to write about a blog site that means something to me.  While I have very limited exposure to the blogging world I have followed some of the students' blogs at Unity College.  I work at Unity College and some of the students when on internships will blog throughout the summer.  So, I don't know of a specific blog that means something to me rather than the entire blogging idea.  Each student will create their own blog site.

I have just finished my 22nd year and have seen many students go through the internship process.  In the years past I never really knew what kind of experiences students would encounter and the skills they would obtain.   I now can see what the students are doing even in Africa on a daily basis.  It really brings things together as a community to be able to see first hand what kind of learning experiences they encounter. 

Reading students' blogs has truly given me a whole appreciation for what it is they do.  I really like to converse with the students as they return in the Fall.  I feel I can truly engage with them about their internship and I like being a part of their learning experience. 

I like having access as it shows the variety of oppurtunities our students have and like to share with future students'.  It has completely opened doors to the life of a student out on an internship.

Below I will list of our students blogs.  However, I am not sure under what date his internship is, but I still find the students blogs very informative.
