Final Thoughts on FWSL
- What were your favorite experiences in the course?
My favorite experience in the course was the Wednesday chat. We had a great group-covered serious topics, answered questions, and had a fair bit of fun banter.
- What technology did you find most interesting for your personal use? What technology did you think would be most useful professionally?
I found Flickr surprisingly interesting and fun (I had thought I wouldn't). I actually see ideas for both personal and professional use. I liked stumbling around with Wiki and REALLY appreciate the easy to use pbwiki platform. I can see real potential for wiki in school settings. Finally blogging might prove very useful in student input sites.
- Were there any unexpected outcomes from this program that surprised you?
Not really, because I went into it expecting to be surprised. I liked learning wiki. I'm still messing around with RSS. And I'm still thinking about de.lici.ous...
- What could we do differently to improve upon this program’s format or concept?
No specific ideas. I liked a lot about the format. My only difficulty was an inability to access live broadcasts aired during worktimes (daytime). Evenings were easy though!
- If there is anything else you'd like to tell us about your experiences in this course, please feel free to do so.
No, but I'd recommend it to other librarians--some teachers also would enjoy it...
Thanks to all who organized and jumped in to participate.
