Avatars and Flickr

I love creating my avatar this week. It was alot of fun - I think she will be more of a "Sybil" by the time I am finished. ha ha ha.... I already have a flickr account and use that alot to keep in contact with the family. But this week I am a little frustrated with trying to get my slideshow up on my blog. I will keep trying to do this, I think it is a great idea and could be used in so many different ways.

I would like to use this for teaching basic computer skills, introducing new staff to the established staff, different activities happening at the library etc. I find it will be a great too. But first, I must get my slideshow up and running. So, if you see the slideshow on my blog you will know I have success!! If not, my grade will be a zero.. So wish me well.

Wiki - "it's a good thing"

As Martha would say "it's a good thing"

I personally think the Wikis are great they are very useful in any type of business not just academics or a library but any community. Libraries can use this for reference resources, tips and tricks with computers, web pages, etc.
They could manage meeting rooms, study rooms, etc. All in all a great assest to any facility.

It is definitely "a good thing"

I Tube, Me Tube, We All Want You Tube

I found this week's lesson fun and educational. I truely enjoyed looking at all the different You Tube and Teacher Tube clips. I found that You Tube was much easier, for me anyway, to use than Teacher Tube. You Tube gave me what I wanted right away instead of the multi searching that I had to do with "TT".

On the You Tube Clip that I have embedded below, I found it now only educational and relevant to what I do but also entertaining at the same time. I just love this guy. He makes learning something fun. I think it's an easy way to get your lesson across and makes one remember it.

So, enjoy my letter lesson on PodCasting in Plain English.





I have also used other clips from You Tube in showing staff and patrons quick lessons on Word, Basic Computer Skills and Parts of a Computer. They seem to like it.

See you all next week.

Foiled by Rollyo

I must admit this weeks lesson for some reason or not was a bit confusing for me. I could not figure out (at least today) how to but my rollyo into my blog. I am ready to pull out the keys on my keyboard. I like the LibraryThing and I will use that but Rollyo and I are having a personality conflict. At this point in time we are not speaking to each other. Maybe we can make up later this week and work out our problems.

I feel rolled over by Rollyo
