Social Experience Blogging is an assignment that can provide students an
opportunity to express themselves while thinking about social experiences or
situations that they have been involved in. With Psychology 20 focusing on
the world of social psychology, it is important for students to reflect upon their
lives and look at the world with their own personal scope. This provides
students with a chance to customize blogs to their own liking and have a
vehicle for personal expression.
