THING 9

Hello fellow Rudai 23 bloggers...

I chose to use Screencast O Matic I really enjoyed it.. I did a little recording of my personal interest Millinery using pinterest just a little demo. I think this is a great idea for adding explanatory links/demos in the library world. I feel it would be a great way to show new technologies etc that are continually been introduced and updated within libraries. Really enjoyed this and I will look forward to showing my colleagues once I return to work next week .

I would recommend this and I look foward to using it myself .

THING 8 Pinterest

Having explored Pinterest I enjoyed it . I created my 5 likes to create a profile of what my interests are and keep a check in to it from time to time. Its great to see Rudai23 on it and is another way of keeping in contact with whats going on plus its great to see other library links and even podcasts on it.. I really enjoy it and even outside of a work level I love to explore my other interests (millinery or anything creative). Being a big glossy magazine lover also  feel I have one at my fingertip always how great!!

I will keep exploring it to see how helpful or useful this would work for us at our library.

Thing 7 PODCASTS

PODCASTS.... I enjoyed listening to the recommended podcasts (oral history series, circulating podcasts).. I also followed other ones via Pinterest. I think its an excellent tool and is a brilliant way to use in an educational way. Once you get into this there is so many to listen to!!!!. I enjoyed Techi teacher and the best 30 Technology and education podcasts but there is so many and I will keep exploring them. I will also encourage my children to use these as there are great educational ones that would suit them.

On a work level I don't use them in what I do at work, but I can't say I will be ruling that out once I return in Sept. after parental leave. Another great tool to explore!

Reflective Practice

Reflective Practice.........Having looked and posted on other blogs , there is a lot I relate to in what others say eg down to the basics of security settings in signing up to what's asked and needed for the course but with great explanation that was dealt with, now like others I'm free to use and enjoy these tools. Doing this course has given me the desire to do more in regards using the tools like hangout air/ podcasts... And now to keep up to date with all this and the interaction with other library workers is great .I'm enjoying reading others feeds and blogs.. Obviously like most things some have excellent expertise and more experience in this field which I find interesting to read their blogs , for me i am enjoying finding my way with all of this. Have to say I would like to get to publish more blogs... Then I might get more reviews.... Here's to me getting more creative with my blogs.....!!!!! on
