Primarily, the nature of the blog posts has shown me the vast amount of subjects that biology has jurisdiction over and plays a part in. Before, I thought of it as just a study of animals and plants...but now I also see the ramifications of biology. Anddd. The blog posts are totally awesome! I mean, there are some wacky stories out there, and they're more than just interesting to read- they make biology fun. The blog has caused me to look at biology in a different way.

And well the bioblog has in a way made my life harder, in that now I have more and more intrests on what to be. But other than that small fact, the bio blog is a great idea, and it has really taught me and helped me teach me about biology.

When I go running, I think about the oxygen and carbon dioxide in the air and how my lungs are working. When I sit down to eat, I wonder where the rice came from. I think in terms of science now - when I see a spider, I think "I wonder where it came from?" not "I'm going to squish it." Instead of seeing things at face value, I look at things as a whole. It's pretty awesome. Sadly, my career of choice hasn't changed (but I am eyeing the genetics department). Yes, this blog has made me think about the world around me in so many more different ways.

I can't believe other teachers haven't jumped on the blog-band-wagon and started one of their own. In psychology we learned that memory is enhanced when a meaningful story or example is connected with the idea/theory. With the blog we are able to make these connections directly with what we are learning, better enhancing our knowledge and memory for future scientific encounters.
