Did your opinion of the topic change in light of the reading you have done for the introductory topic and first module?

Reflective journal entry
The assignment is due 1st December at 11.59pm and the expected word count is 1200 words, give or takes 10%.
For this assessment you must make a journal entry that summarises and reflects upon the ways that you have found the theories in the introductory topic and ‘cyberidentity and cybercommunity’ module to be applicable to ‘real’ life. There is no set question for this assessment. In this way, you have some flexibility in terms of how you want to structure your assessment depending upon what information you found to be stimulating, thought provoking or controversial. If you are not sure how to begin your entry, you might like to use the questions listed under ‘What is a reflection?’ (Below) to structure your entry.
This reflective journal entry is intended to help you consider your own experiences and circumstances, but it also requires you to reflect on the prescribed readings, learning materials and the discussion threads so that you incorporate the ideas and reflections of others as well. It is expected that you will refer to yourself in the first person (‘I’) to demonstrate that you have reflected on the material.
What is a reflection?
When you ‘reflect’ upon an issue, it means that you introduce your views on a topic based on your own experiences and observations and discuss how your views may have changed as a result of reading and discussing material related to the introductory topic and first module. Some questions that you may like to consider:
*What is your own reaction to the issues/themes presented in the introductory topic and first module? Why?
*Did your opinion of the topic change in light of the reading you have done for the introductory topic and first module?
*Did any questions come up in your mind because of points made in material you read?
*Can you connect your response to current events in the media in Australia or abroad related to the introductory topic or first module?
Remember, you only have 1200 words to do so but I would expect you to make references to at least 4 sources included in the readings for this module. Spelling, grammar and expression are all necessary parts of this assessment.
Please also be aware that although you are strongly encouraged to incorporate your own thoughts/opinions on the material in your entry, you are also required to include in-text references and a bibliography for all scholarly material/readings that you cite in your entry. Please use Harvard citation style.
If you would like to cite comments made by a fellow student in this unit from the discussion threads, this is strongly encouraged. You can do this in your entry by listing: (Student name, Date). Don’t worry about providing bibliographic entries for student comments.
