Our Blogging Experiences

According to the guidelines of our syllabus, blog participation is a necessary part of our time spent on homework. I chose to post my response to the case study on Julie Amero and was pleasently surprised to soon be contacted by someone who had actually been involved. A person whose name I will omit for courtesy purposes contacted me, interested in hearing about the case study, as they had been on of the original people who worked with the computer to get the guilty verdict vacated. I find it incredible that our blogging for this course allows us to experience interaction with the people who are involved with the very events we are studying. It is a useful tool and allows us to perhaps dig deeper into these studies than we would be able to just by reading from paper and having a discucssion amongst ourselves.
