Our awesome journey in the subject MIL

(media and information literacy)

Our journey started this year as we continued our studies in senior high school, at first we thought that MIL was boring and we expected that the teacher didn’t have the skills to make our class more fun and interesting, but our expectations turned into complete opposite it is more fun, more interesting and we learned easily. The teacher always conducts oral recitations and advised us to study our lessons well.

Even though we haven’t fully grasped the lesson, at least we are halfway to understanding its context with the guide of our teacher. He always makes sure that we will always be engaged in the subject so that we can learn easily. He always makes sure that we enjoy his subject and have a high level of interactivity during our discussions. His oral recitations are a great help for us and it gives us the capability to answer our examinations, quizzes, and activities.

For us, he is the most entertaining teacher that we ever had. Unlike other teachers, he is like a student, our classmate and a friend that always makes us laugh and learn at the same time. This subject has a huge impact on us as a student it improves our communication skills and our pronunciation skills. We discovered that even though this subject is not a major subject, yet it helped a lot to develop us to be ready soon.

This awesome journey that we experienced was worth it! We are glad that this kind of subject existed as well as the teacher. Hoping that this kind of teacher will inspire the incoming teachers and students like us. Many of us complain a lot that the k-12 program is absolute trash, yes it is true, but we are also thankful that we have a chance to learn about Media Information Literacy or also known as MIL.

Introduce Yourself (Example Post)

This is an example post, originally published as part of Blogging University. Enroll in one of our ten programs, and start your blog right.

You’re going to publish a post today. Don’t worry about how your blog looks. Don’t worry if you haven’t given it a name yet, or you’re feeling overwhelmed. Just click the “New Post” button, and tell us why you’re here.

Why do this?

  • Because it gives new readers context. What are you about? Why should they read your blog?
  • Because it will help you focus you own ideas about your blog and what you’d like to do with it.

The post can be short or long, a personal intro to your life or a bloggy mission statement, a manifesto for the future or a simple outline of your the types of things you hope to publish.

To help you get started, here are a few questions:

  • Why are you blogging publicly, rather than keeping a personal journal?
  • What topics do you think you’ll write about?
  • Who would you love to connect with via your blog?
  • If you blog successfully throughout the next year, what would you hope to have accomplished?

You’re not locked into any of this; one of the wonderful things about blogs is how they constantly evolve as we learn, grow, and interact with one another — but it’s good to know where and why you started, and articulating your goals may just give you a few other post ideas.

Can’t think how to get started? Just write the first thing that pops into your head. Anne Lamott, author of a book on writing we love, says that you need to give yourself permission to write a “crappy first draft”. Anne makes a great point — just start writing, and worry about editing it later.

When you’re ready to publish, give your post three to five tags that describe your blog’s focus — writing, photography, fiction, parenting, food, cars, movies, sports, whatever. These tags will help others who care about your topics find you in the Reader. Make sure one of the tags is “zerotohero,” so other new bloggers can find you, too.
