Week 9

Thing #21.
Audio/visual broadcast distributed over internet automatically by RSS. Short commentaries or person interviews or group discussions. Good tool for instruction, once one "get's it".

Thing #22
Overdrive-not found.
Netlibrary-found.

Introduction to Netlibrary
http://www.plcm.org/public/netlibrary/netlibrarytalk.htm

Tutorial gives intricate instructions.

Thing #23
1. It took me a while to get into swing of 23 things. Favorite thing was professor Wertz' video on Youtube. You are the Machine- Wonderful instructional video on how technology is working.
2. I am excited about what is available to learn-somewhat overwhelming.
3. That I can absorb some of this information. I am surprised.
4. A little clearer instruction right at first. Step by step at first would help. Had no idea what was expected.
5. Yes.
6. This was stimulating to see what is happening now, but I could not keep up with it all. Have feeling of being "Left Behind" [to use a pun].
This was painfully fun. Making time was difficult.

Week 7 #16

16. Wikis and ways libraries use them-
http://www.libraryforlife.org/subjectguides/index.php/Main_Page
Good learning tool about library terms.
http://www.libsuccess.org/index.php?title=Main_Page
Covers ALL aspects of what a wiki is and what it does, from catagories to materials to technology . Sharing cataloged information by sharing websites.
http://www.merlin.lib.md.us/?q=node/49
The way info is found now is great-good old research is the basic and then find out what others have found. Add it all together and application becomes great teaching tool for staff and public.
Wiki=websites used to share info and files. Info on any subject found by people and kept accurate by people.
