Good blog posts are not just aesthetically pleasing. Good blog posts are beautiful. But how does one define that beauty? There's lots of measuring sticks: attractive visuals, well-written content, an obvious purpose fulfilled. Trying to include everything you want creates complexity.
Like the human body, complexity can still be beautiful and natural. Ariel Szuch made a great case when she published about her book club on her blog. Ariel integrated several great outcomes into one post.
First, she read a historical book that gives context to the content of our class.
Second, she created a Prezi of her own accord. This shows some self-directed learning.
Third, her Prezi was a remix of the section of the book she read. It sounds like she is embracing the digital culture by remixing content.
Finally, she spread the love by publishing the simple steps to familiarize her readers about Prezi.
The blog hit so many points of our class that it needed a nomination for great blog posts from this semester. Way to go Ariel.
