ESC Thing #14, Week 6

Its pretty interesting that Technorati is attempting to categorize so many blogs. The librarian in me applauds them for their efforts. I searched for "School library learning 2.0". The keyword search brought up multiple postings. Tried searching just the blog postings as well as just the tags. Noticed that most of the postings that were brought up were mostly other bloggers participating in "23 Things" for other school districts in other states. How interesting that so many of us are trying to learn about Web 2.0 and all of its applications.

ESC Thing 13, Week 6

del.icio.us is really easy to use. I spent lots of time visiting many of the different tags that people have set up as well as the SJLibraryLearning2's account that was set up for this assignment. I had already set up my own del.icio.us account previously and find myself adding to it constantly. You can set up del.icio.us on your browser's toolbar and just tag and tag to your hearts delight. Since first setting up my account I have discovered other tools which make me love this site the best of all. You can add other users to your social network and all of their bookmarks come with them. Cool!!
I have already been approached to in service all of our district's Geography teachers and this is one site they will all learn about.

Thing # 14

Tag, tags and more tags. I don't think I played this much tag as a child. I searched for "School library learning 2.0". The keyword search brought up multiple postings. Not all were as helpful as when I explored blogs. Visited the blog of an educator who works with ESL low income students and was fascinated by what he had to say about technology and getting more educators to use it. As a school librarian at a low income school with a large ESL population it is always interesting how other educators work with their students.
