It is actually a good one, not like Sword art online with a lot of fighting excerpt and the graphics is not good enough as the SAO, but i love the plot and the worldview. SAO ‘s plot turns to a horrible falling action for me, but i still like it the characters, and it is the first anime which connect to the online game, i would wait for the next season for both of them.

The more impressive the love, the greater the tragedy when it is folded up. A perfect relationship is destined to have destructive situations.  Allie and Noah’s love is a suitable example for this, some claim that the relationship between them has a blissful ending in “The Notebook”; however, the novel itself is a tragedy. Evident if one examines the unfortunate secondary characters and the protagonists’ health issues. On the one hand, the poem which about drowning man shows Noah and Allie has a miserable destiny. On the other hand Lon and Dr.Barnwell have a pitiful life. What could be more painful, Noah and Allie are separated because of diseases. Two lovers close to each other but cannot touch, they yearn of being together but cannot be conveyed, and it is one of the definitions of tragedy.

     I think your 3 ideas of online learning benefits are very pertinence and ideal. It seems like this type of learning is focus on time saving, improve the efficiency and quality of teaching. In my personal opinion, the benefits of these points that you list is too idealistic, to be honest, release a lot of flexible time for students may affect learning initiative, a part of lazy students may simply not be in class, they might only take a review before an exam. I am not saying your opinion is bad, the idea shows a lot consideration for the students, but you may need to add some measures which will cover the weakness such as online attendance, online classroom testing.

Most blogs will be displayed in a journal or log entry format, most of them are updated daily or more frequently most web sites would be.

There are some advantages of blogging. First it is very quick and easy to set up, and you don’t require too much technical knowledge. Then it enable you to write your thoughts on anything that interests you. And it could easily and quickly to update and add new posts. People can leave their comments on your blog.

Like a business blog can be very useful as it allows the business to inform employees of new policies and changes, it could help students improve their writing skill and learn to express their ideas and own opinions on topics of common interest to other people.

However, it also brings some negative impact. The blog takes a lot of time to update and post an entry on it. And there is no confidentiality because it is a public forum, you might published some things you could regret it later but everyone will see it. People may leave some inappropriate or rude comments which will makes you feel really bad.

Compering with some traditional formats such as magazine or newspaper. Blog could include more specific and interesting information and it usually update way faster than some newspaper or magazine. But personal blogs may be biased or contain inaccurate information, it is different from magazine or newspaper, the blogger don’t need to be responsible for the accuracy of the information it post.
