Week 9, Thing #23

I'm finished!!! I have to admit that after I had initially signed up back in May I had second thoughts and was thinking that I had gotten in over my head, so I made alternate plans and signed up for other workshops to get my required EQ hours. However, upon returning from vacation on July 15th, having attended a one day conference in Chicago titled, "Do Hard Things" I decided that I needed to do "23 Things" to prove to myself that I could accomplish it. So, I started on July 23rd and completed everything in just over two weeks! I found the course to be easier than I had originally thought it would be. The tools that we explored were all very user friendly and the Discovery activities were not overwhelming, but rather very manageable. I learned ALOT. There is so much out there that can be used to make the educational experience a bit more fun and engaging for our students.(You can use this one for my one sentence summary)

Some thoughts on how to improve. I noticed that some of the links listed for us to check out were no longer active (I noted this on some of my blog posts).

Thanks for the experience!

WOW!!!! What an amazing undertaking! It is really incredible the amount of information that is available on the internet. I noticed that Project Gutenburg has many of the classics available. This could be helpful to our PRE-AP and AP students who have to read several of these books for required summer reading. I also found Common Sense by Thomas Payne, which I just finished reading a week or so ago. I could have got it for FREE!!! What a great collaborative project the World Public Library is.

Week 9, Thing #21

I found a podcast in the podcastalley directory called Teenlibrarian (http://feeds.feedburner.com/Teenlibrarian)which is for librarians whose clients are teenagers, so I added it to my bloglines account. There were some examples on the educational directory that had many podcasts from schools of all levels that gave a good idea of ways podcasts can be used in schools. I know at my school the ESL teachers were sent to Podcast training last Spring, and I think a second workshop this summer, so they could incorporate the use of podcasting into 2nd language learning for our Newcomers class. Hopefully, I will be involved in that! In the library I could make podcasts of book reviews for students to access. I could also do short podcasts on important things like copyright policy.

Week 9, Thing 20 continued

Week 9, Thing #20

YouTube has some awesome videos on it! A person could spend their whole summer just watching videos and still not have viewed everything there. I really liked Library Manifesto and Web 2.0. Introducing the book was fun!

I found a video that shows how San Jose State's Library and Information division is using Second Life as a learning tool for their distance learning students. I picked this one because it is incredible to think that something that is so similar to online games is now being used for eductional purposes. I think students would absolutely love this type of learning environment!

I am going to attempt to embed it in another blog.

Week 8, Thing #19

I like Library Thing alot! It is neat that the site is there simply to connect people with books and to connect people to other people who have read the same books! I also really liked the feature that allows you to check out local book things happening in your area. I added the latest books that I have read this summer. The one with the most people connections had 272 for Do Hard Things. The link is http://www.librarything.com/catalog/dkoenig
