Fall 2007 is ending now… We did a lot of work and I hope all satisfied by that!!!  New information technologies are very useful and interesting course. I think it is very necessary for journalists. As for beginner in Journalistic area for me it was like undiscovered thing. I learned a lot of information about techniques at all; I learned what is Weblogs, etc. And I think the main what I’ve learned are the important topics in journalism like Participatory journalism, OPJ. Internet governance in Kazakhstan!! While this course I knew many useful sites about journalism not only American or Britain, but also Kazakhstani! We wrote articles many times, we analyzed a lot of materials, and we posted our thoughts and ideas on our weblogs! Also I really liked work with my team! Juldyz, Meruert and Gulnara are best teammates!! We made weblog about Almaty and the sweetest tastes of southern capital!! Each member wrote about what she like. Gulnara wrote mostly about sport, especially about football. Juldyz wrote about girls’ beauty, about Miss KIMEP, etc. Meruert wrote about stars, exclusive concert in Almaty of the most popular musical band “Black Eyed Peace” and saying about me I wrote about parties, events not only in KIMEP but also in Almaty. In the end of work we did a presentation! I hoped that students of our course liked it!

 In conclusion, I want to say that this course for me is one of the remembered courses at KIMEP. I met a lot of friends and they are mostly journalists!!!! (The number of journalists is not so big as another at KIMEP)  J Also, I think we became a real community  which is connected with New information Technologies! By theory” Communities are groups of people who interact with one another (either directly or indirectly, intentionally or not) in order to accomplish something”. and KIMEP connects us!!

Thanks to all of you and of course to Frederick!!!
