Evaluating Your Final Blog (Reflection #3)

You did it!  We researched, designed, planned, created and finished our final blogs!  As you look at your finished product, you should be proud of your accomplishments.

Now, in this phase, you will take a step back to reflect on the outcome of your product.

Create a post that includes and addresses the following:

1. Introductory Paragraph (to help readers understand the need and process of evaluating a final product.)
   
   
2. What are your feelings about your final product? (Positive and/or negative)
   
   
3. What aspect of your final product are you most proud of and why?
    
4. How does your final product meet your design specifications i.e. your personal criteria, functional blog requirements, design elements and your personality/theme?
    
5. What features or functions on your blog would you change to make a better product?
    
6.  Moving forward, what steps can you take to grow your blog and use it as a tool to have a positive effect on yourself and your community?
    
7. Conclusion paragraph (that sums up the success of your final product.)

You may either do this in written or video format.  If you opt for the video option, note the following:

• Suggested web tool to create video:  http://screencast-o-matic.com/
• Video length should be no more than 5 minutes.
• Video must be uploaded to your YouTube channel and then embedded in your blog post.
