The revised version was much more free and less structured.
I like the newer version because it allowed us to revise our past essays.
More time spent on each essay. I felt that all the essays were very rushed.
I liked the fact that we all had laptops and it made it very easy to show each other our work and we did not have to print anything out.

3.3. How are students interacting on Facebook?
Like traditional media such as television and film viewing, Facebook consists of a one-to-many communication style, where information presented reaches many “viewers” at a time. However, with social networking sites, users are now the creators of content, and they view one another's profiles and information rather than viewing mass-produced content made by large corporations. They also become the stars of their own productions. As students commented:
“I primarily use Facebook to maintain connections with people that I do not get to see or talk to that often. It has also been an easy form of mass communication to disseminate information or things such as pictures.”
“They are very helpful for networking, Myspace especially – where you can become an internet celebrity.”
This pattern of one-to-many communication is also revealed by what students do online (observe/lurk) and by wall posts (where many students can see what they are doing all at once) rather than sending private messages.
