Blogging

A few thoughts before I write my final blog for assignment 2.

Have found the whole process of blogging a bit daunting. I think it is a discipline to organise a time each day or every so many days, to add some thoughts to the blog. I find it difficult to actually put thoughts onto a computer - am of the generation of putting pen to paper! I do not have my computer on all the time and am not in a position to just zip over and punch a few lines onto blog. Must see how I can deal with this as the blog is clearly going to continue to be part of the assessment.

Am concerned about the assig 2. Have read SOOOOO much but can't seem to remember anything. I think I will have to learn some lessons from the Info literacy skills process!!!

I guess I am also somewhat Presbyterian in expressing myself for others to witness - others who are unknown and I find that daunting.

Am reading a book call Here Comes Everybody: How change happens when people come together by Clay Shirky, 2009 Penguin England. It's about the fact that communication through technology of various sorts is no longer one to one but involves an audience in numbers many of whom are unknown. Dissmenination of information has reached extraordinay heights and I guess in a nut shell this is where Info lit skills will continue to become critical as time goes on a rapidly, technologically changing world. Provides much food for thought about the role of Teacher Librarians.
