IEOR 190G social media benefit

The class assignment format is very interesting because we need to submit our assignment through blog post and YouTube video. The benefit of using online social media tools for a course is knowing how your classmate is doing. Also, I need to be self-conscious about the submitted content. Because not only the reader and the classmate but the entire Internet will be able to have access to it. The motivation to maintain certain quality really help me think more about the produced content before publishing.

The difference between using social media than the traditional learning tool is that we get the aggregated feedback from the entire class. The minute I got a positive feedback or even a constructive analysis on the post/video, I started an intellectual conversation/debate over the course topic. This attribute created the value this course intended to have. Patent is still a very current topic, that's why I think it is good to discuss over it. Because you can never be right or wrong about this topic if Federal Circuit and Supreme Court are having conflicting ruling results over and over again.
