Turn Out The Lights....23 Things is Over

What were your favorite discoveries or exercises on this learning journey?
Wow, where to begin. Just this project itself just immersed me in new ways of using technology. My favorite was photostory and animoto.

How has this program assisted or affected your lifelong learning goals?
This program has taught me that technology is ever changing. New ideas and trends are being created as I type and how are they going to affect our internet world. These tools that I have learned will help with passing on some great resources and tools for collegues and also students! Isn't this what it is all about-teaching our students!

Were there any take-a-ways or unexpected outcomes from this program that surprised you? Well, I really wanted my photostory to come up. I was a little sad. However, as soon as I get this posted as well as INST 6031 assignment posted I will have time to come back and adjust. In reality, most of the tools were user friendly when trying to create or having to upload or download. That itself really impressed me. Again, I am ready to show my principal or my Dept Head on what I can try to help implement this into a staff development that fits our needs. I am glad I had suggested it when Dr. Bishop asked us in class and he allowed us to use any part of Library2Play - 23 Things for our use.

What could we do differently to improve upon this program’s format or concept?
Format and Concepts, both were good. Time constraints was my only issue. I guess because I have another class (INST 6031) which is demanding for a summer class, workshops, as well as being a mom during the summer- Reyna had to start school earlier because I needed some time for school because my library classes are a BIG part of my schedule right now.

Having Library2Play 23 Things as a blogging style of staff development has many benefits. One part Technorati needed more one-on-one style for me to understand.

If we offered another discovery program like this in the future, would you choose to participate?
Yes, sign me up!!! I loved it. If I get the opportunity to create one for my campus or collegues I will show you our "10 Things!!!"

How would you describe your learning experience in ONE WORD or in ONE SENTENCE, so we could use your words to promote 23 Things learning activities?
