My thoughts on 23 things… after all… January 5, 2009

Filed under: Uncategorized — 4my23things @ 8:55 pm

I always enjoy learning something new.  I am glad we had the chance to play and learn.  I found some tools I can apply in my “real life”.  Then… I saw this over the weekend that made me a little precaution about some of the free sites out there.

Tech Trouble


So, what are my thoughts?

What were your favorite discoveries or exercises on this learning journey?

Social Networking and YouTube are my favorite exercises.  I use Facebook found some of my old friends.  Now we can catch up  with each other.  Just like the good old days.  And YouTube!  WOW! You can find and learn some much on it.  I share my wedding videos with my friends and family oversea.  I don’t need to send them any DVDs and they don’t have to wait so long to see me.

How has this program assisted or affected your lifelong learning goals?

It has helped me open my eyes.  There are so many opportunities out there that we haven’t discovered yet.  And the world keeps on changing.  I don’t want to fall behind.   I will do my best to keep up!

Were there any unexpected outcomes from this program that surprised you?

It’s not anything that “unexpected” but surprised, amazed, and puzzles.  As working at the Library, it’s the place to “learn” to “obtain” information.  Why are there so many people “refuse” to do this??  It’s just beyond me.
What could we do differently to improve upon this program’s format or concept?

Maybe next time we can schedule some tutoring hours for those who are familiar with the program to assist those who want to get stars but not really a computer fan so they won’t feel so isolated or left behind.

After all, for our first time doing this, it isn’t bad!  So, what’s next?  :-)

 

E-Audiobooks January 5, 2009

Filed under: Uncategorized — 4my23things @ 8:50 pm

I had some issues when I was downloading an e-audiobook.  Luckily, one of my co-workers was able to help me.  It’s a bit confusing at the beginning how to navigate around the console but eventually I figured it out.

It’s a great tool if I don’t have time to read.  And the books are very recent too.  I like it.  I will definitely continue to explore it more.
