After a long silence, due to organizing a library to be moved at the end of the year, I am back! Have continued with the 5 weekly tutorials and have found them to be immensely useful. Have now covered RSS feeds, Wikis and Digital Storytelling, and have managed to make a basic entry for each of them. The course has given me a vision of how I could use these tools as a teacher-librarian, which is fantastic!
Social Bookmarking
When I did the professional reading on social bookmarking, I got really excited about it as I could see it was a fabulous way to remember good websites and share them with others and being a teacher-librarian, this more organized approach to the Internet is very appealing. But Delicious is blocked at our school and I am only on slow dial-up at home so have been unable to proceed with setting up my delicious site. So I am going to go onto Week 3 and see how I get on there!
Getting started with blogging
I have had a go at blogging before, but was unable to negotiate my way through all the options, etc. So when I heard of this Web 2.0 course, I thought I’d give it another go. I am finding all the support material on the SMSN site excellent and think that this time I could succeed!
