The 23 Things
For this tutorial, there are 23 Things for you to do. Each Thing will show you one more web tool. There are many places for you to explore, experiment with, and think about creative ways to use this in your library or to collaborate with classroom teachers. Region One Co-op members who completed all items on this list by 08/15/2008 will receive 18 hours of CPE credit. Otherwise, there is no deadline and this course will remain online through the 2008-2009 school year. If you are not yet a member, we invite you to register for workhsop number 17680.
Tutorial Format:
Each week begins with a brief explanation of a new web 2.0 topic, followed by Discovery Exercises. These exercises give you the background you need to understand the tools you're learning about. Don't skip them! After the Discovery Exercises, you'll find a Thing -- activity -- to complete. Then you comment or "post" to your online log (Blog.) You will learn how to set up a blog in week two. This is a tool to communicate your feelings, new found skills, ideas, questions, and favorite websites. You'll receive feedback from me and from other participants. It's your space!
