 Uploading ....- EXERCISE By Tuesday: Set up a WordPress blog and make at least one post on the blog. Please submit the URL blog to me at klussier@semls.org (or you can use the Feedback link at the top of this page.) I will post the URLs to everybody's blog on Thursday.
- READING By Wednesday: Read at least one of the following articles about blogging in libraries.
- DISCUSSION By Wednesday:
Post a comment to this page reflecting on your readings and your
blogging experience. To help in your reflections, you may want to look
at some examples of library blogs. Think of the following questions as you post:
- How did you find the experience of setting up your blog? Did you come across any obstacles along the way or was it fairly easy?
- Do you think posting to the blog is something that most people in your library could do?
- Are
there good reasons why a library should launch a blog or is it a case
where libraries are just jumping on to the technology bandwagon?
- Can you think of any ways that a blog could be used in your library?
- DISCUSSION By Friday:
- One
of the benefits of posting to a blog is you may get the opportunity to
hear what your readers are thinking and how they are reacting to what
you wrote. Take some time to read your classmates' blogs and post a comment to at least one blog.
This is an opportunity to get to know the people who will be taking
this class with you over the next few weeks, so if there are several
posts that catch your attention, feel free to post to more than one
blog.
- Post a response to at least one of the comments on this page.
- WEEK 1 Evaluation:
- In
face-to-face classes, I can get a sense of how the class is going by
looking at the students' faces and watching them work. Since I don't
have this opportunity in an online class, I will be posting an
evaluation form every week for you to complete when the week's work is
done. Please fill out this week's evaluation before moving on to next week's assignments.
