4. What types of learning strategies would you recommend to make the activity even be
I think that the way we were taught to create the blog was ideal. Prof Hupy told us how to create the initial blog page, the information we would need inside the blog, and how to create additional pages. I think with something this creatively driven, basic guidance and time to work is all that is required (and is actually ideal).

We have spent much time in previous courses analyzing the philosophical components of UAS. That is, the foundations that have made UAS possible and what UAS is comprised of. This was a good review and mental exercise, but we have done tasks like this before.
