THE GREAT OLD DAYS
Comments:
First hello to all guys passed deadly presentation and special thanks to miss Oladi for telling my friends indirectly the reality that they are like crowns by showing their pictures.
Hating answering to questions systematic I generally talk about the things our teacher asked...
We have talked enough about pros and cons of blogging but as conclusion I should mention:Blogging was a good experience to show us why we are still in 3rd world;We are the people got used to do ancient methods,not thinking about our believes,on every part of the planet just SAYING without DOING occures but we EVEN talk...Our wills are dictated and if they want us to involve ourselves what a tragedy happens...Always we talk about freedom but having the space we do not talk and those acting are teased... When somebody disagrees with us we do not defend our believes and not even listen to them...Yes this is how my thinking is changed and leading me to what I have to do in future...

*Practice makes perfect!*
Learning a language is like learning to put parts of a puzzle.You should find the way out by trial and error.
Writting is an important skill.It`s different from conversation&its important point is OVERTRAINING.Scientists have proved that thinking increases the brainfolds.(thinking=brain`s food).It means our brain is like an athlete who should train, to do his best.But this brain training can`t be done individually...WHY?Every person has his own ideas,information, knowledge&different ways of looking at the world...We have lacks which others don`t have&we are strong in fields that others are weak....*Cyber discovery*let us to gather our ideas,to look&peep in every where,to change the wrong&strong the truth....we learned how to criticize politely&how to correct our mistakes.
Blogging was a window for me to take part in a great partnership,with my classmates...
Designing your room with mirrors,may seem wonderfull,but you would never see the nice rays of other suns.

Hello after a long time...
I was shoked to see that long list of questions!!However I try to answer them as much as I have any comments.
At first I was not that interested in blogging but after a while I found that blogging can help us to READ,THINK and WRITE together.The subjects usually were related to our thoughts in that time for example nagging for method of the class!!!!
So we were interested in reading others' comments-who were our classmates-and this made us at least READER OF SOME TEXTS!!But I myself read "NOT too long" and "NOT too complicated" comments!
Yes blogging can help to learn English,because you get forced to know something in the language to understand the subject and others' comments,and also to say your own thought and idea and to communicate, so you improve!
The most important thing in blogging is THINKING and writing your thought after reading other's ones!
I think we can learn a lot in blogging but it's not enough by itself.Because we need to have our mistakes corrected!However for starting and in general course it is great, but after that we shoud care to details much more!

I thank Miss Oladi and I can say that blogging was really nicer and more interesting than many other boring activities like journals!

Hello everybody,
Without any preface,I shoud say that blogging was a great experience for me,previous term.But as my classmates have said it should be improved in someparts;As we are in higher level,the subjects & ways of writing should be more professional. As "passenger" has said,one of the disadvantages of blogging is that we can't understand our mistakes.So I think
blogging itself is not enough for improving the way of writing journals can help it so much;although it is not as intresting as blogging!

hey everybody!
long time no see!!! it's real cool to answer very very ... few questions on how good or bad webloging was - oops is . i think ms oladi is so generousely lavishing her Q's on us , but i gotta mind her "you might not always be paid back completely as excpected" and as far as i know ourselves - med students- i ask for her forgiveness in advance.
by the way i just shut my mouth up and go staright to the lovely Q's.
if you ask my mom's idea ,she probabaly would say "i hate my las chatting ,whatever else she does in the internet i don't care " and i know her feelings towards any sort of messenger , but i remember how nicely she used to look at the screen and fallow my words while i typed my comments for this weblog ,you could tell she admired the whole thing about it for all reasons which one was "NO CHATTING in weblog" . seriousely i discused the same thing(weblogging and it's good points) with her sometime , she warned me " remember everybody is gonna read it " so i had to over read my own comment 2-3 times to check it both grammatically and the right use of words or expressions. i confess it helped alot -correcting my own paper!!!- on the other hand like any bandeye khatakare khoda i liked to stay top as well and compared my comments with other's to get out their mistakes and never let them appear in mine. it truely was a great way of learning , exceptionally for you never felt like you were pushed to your limits as it very often happens when in the class.
PLz plzzzzzzz do not talk about journals with me ,i really take a rain coat on that . it could have only charmed some poets up since it's a part of their instict to write about themselves anytime anywhere anyhow... so every normal person knows what i am getting at ... writting journals is horrible ,it's awkward , it's oh... so boring .
did any body say it ??? woooo who was the angel who brought the subject of CHATTING up? i admit CHATTING with native speakers of english is the lord of english-learning methods , even better than living among them (for the first one or two years of course) . so we'd better forget about comaring chatting with anyother thing like logging cuz we'll definitly end up losers .

to be continued...
good luck everyone ! see ya.

Second episode:
"THINK IN ENGLISH,TALK IN ENGLISH,LEARN ENGLISH"
It is the whole idea I have understood about blogging in cyberdiscovery from the aspect of English teaching...

1)At first blogging is a kind of modern assignment of course but it followse some aimse.i think it has its benefits :connecting to internet at least once aweek/becoming familiar with the opinions of our classmates/...
2)I believe that we usually bloged about everythink that was related to the condition & atmosphere of that week somehow
3)I rarely read other students blog because i have no time for prowling in other blogs and if Iwant to be honest I should say prefer chatting because ur partner is online but reading other blog is as boring as reading news
4)Blogging is a new experience &some of the students who dont participate in class talking will find a good chance to present their opinions freely
5)As I told as a student I dont like blogging and cant answer this question
7)When you use a foreign language for indicating your mean you shold be familiar with the custom & civilization of that language to be successful.
8)When you read other blogger comment you know the stge of your engleash and try to suport it by studing more.
9)As I said I never like blogging .
10)Yes, somehow
11)When you chat with a person you sholdnt type whole of a word & usually use abriviation and you get the answer of your message at the time.
12)It improved my feeling about blogging but didnt cure it.
13)no
14)Reading other blogger commentes give the chance you to know their way of thinking
15)I have mentioned the advantages in upper answers.
16)Have good mood for reading other comment &be sensitive about their telling and analize their opinion.
17)Analizing others speaks
18)I think that I should be more creative because there is no mark to encourage otheres to see my blog and the only support for it is my thout
19)I prefer to publish it anonymously
20)Of course for having a not boring blog you should deal with other bloggers and think about their comments instead of saying your opinion and leave others to their fait.
21)I would like to know their way of thinking about different things that have been asked incyberdiscovery.
22)It will encourage them to blog
23)You will know othere blogger opinion a bout your way of thinking and know the agreement or disagreement comments about your opinion and after that you should be more careful about your writing because you are certain that othere analize it.
24)It will help it alot by facing new words and expression in the comments or different way of writing.
25)It is really helpful
26)it is repeatetive
27)Analizing othere bloggers comment
28)10% of my time
29)For chatting or getting some news
30)In othere foreign blogs you dont know the memberes and even may be they arent sameage or studing in same field so if you say something wrong it doesent make any matter but in cyberdiscovery everything is different.
Have a nice day

Hello after along time withthe wish of having nice days forward,we were together for along time anonymous & speak anyone with his phylosophy, but for me our educating process from early life years was a thinking triggling,we couldent say HEY !!lts think,we need asubject,so in blogging we had anice apportunity to think ,write&read English.
But thats hard to say ones theme of answering ,thats a SHARP MIND LIGHTENING!!!!!!!
of course blogging process involves reading thinking & writting English,its away offacing different mind types.
from ancient time speaking& expressing ideas was so essential that we had trained people for it ,actually authorities are evaluated by thier speakers,now we are expriencing to learn in a schematic form .
TO be honest its cute toknow whats in others minds & reknowing!!!!!! them in anew view .
from my patriet part of mind I think iranians in past too were successful in ancient fform of blogging !!!!!!!now they are putting it in anew frame.
maybe undelibrately any of us do this ,but in blogging we are speaking fr.....................

Hi to every body who read this comment...first I have to appriciate of our proffesors because in this metod really we learnt something that nowhere we won't participate in them anymore...maybe the cause of saying these words is that I've passed these activities but the reality is that when after finnishing terms u look at the way u have passed it would be sweet ..of cours more sweeter than days of real classes...some activites like drawing web....it was really difficult for me to draw or paint at university like children but now I can use of some skills which I learnt those days...or journals..I think Mrs.Oladi knows that how much I liked to write them because it made me to write despite sometimes I didn't know what have to write .I tried and finally undrestand how should I do it....but it was very late!...because there were a new way to communicate to each other and because befor it I didn't have any experiences about it..so first it was really difficult to start..but finally it learnt me to read the others' writing eventhough u don't know them or u don't like their ideas...It was very nice that we could register our Nickname instead of real name and students could write truth of their thinkings...!
about the use of internet ...I think I don't waste my time and whole the time I sit back the pc is profit and after I learnt how to put my opinions in blogs I tried to see persian weblogs..and most of the time I comment on students'weblogs!!!
hope to learn more helpful ways of getting English in ESP2....
sorry If it was long!!!!!!!
thanx for every thing

First hello.I hope you all do your best in exams.Having been a nagger all the time at last I should admit that the method was a good experience for me who got used to old ways but I think it takes a lot of time although it was a good chance to understand what my classmates think.My English confidence has risen but without learning a specific part of language.
At last I hope my teacher won't have a student like me in future...
