First Neovox Essay!

I thought that the neovox article was a good assignment to have. I have never before been away about the neovox sight and that they had as many articles as the did have. I enjoyed doing this article because I feel that writing an article and posting it on neovox allows you to put your opinions and experiences out there and allow people to benefit from them.

I chose to write about taking an online course. I chose this because it is something I have never really before been aware of, and before taking it there are a lot of things that I was unaware about and wish that I could have been informed about before taking them. At first I thought it was going to be hard to write so much about this topic and was considering changing it to something else, but then when I sat down to write it, I had more to say then I thought. I believe by writing about what an online course requires as well as my experiences will help others in deciding how they want to go about their educational experiences. For some people online courses are a great way to go and for others may not be so benefical.

I also really enjoyed the neovox workshop. When I write essays I always tend to skip over my mistakes, but when someone else corrects it they are able to find a lot more to fix than you could do yourself. I thought it was great how the whole class was able to look over each others essays and help make them better. I never knew you could go into word and use a editing system, where you can mark on the persons paper through the computer. I found that to be really helpful and useful as well.
