Final Reflection

This project has been a learning experience. I feel that I have learned a lot from discussing and working together as a group to present Holes to our classmates. I enjoyed hearing other group members ideas, thoughts, and interpretations of the book which often presented me with another point of view in which to see the author's intent. At times it was difficult to stay motivated to keep up with postings. I really missed the social aspect of the traditional literature circle structure. In the furture I would use weblogs as a recording devise of the activities of a literature circle not the means in which to conduct it.
