Week 2: Thing 3

Setting up my blog was really easy. I've posted a couple of things successfully. It's really very easy to use. Very user-friendly! Coming up with something interesting to say about the 23 things is much harder... I'll try to be more entertaining in my next post for the poor folks who are reading all of these blogs.

Week 1: Thing 2

I watched the lifelong learning tutorial. I feel like my two strengths were creating my own learning toolbox and using technology to my advantage, which makes sense to me. Those are the two things that librarians' jobs are all about--finding resources to help people learn and adapting to using new technology.

The hardest thing for me is beginning with the end in mind. I often think of things that I want to learn about or learn to do, but I rarely have a specific goal in mind. That's probably why I tend to lose interest in these projects (especially if I try to learn to craft...I'm neither crafty nor patient enough to put in the work to learn things like that). I'm working on going into learning new things with a more clear goal in mind.

Week 1: Thing 1

I'm looking forward to starting the program and learning more about fun techology...and winning the fabulous prizes. I've used some of the things that we'll be covering, but it will be fun to get a chance to use them again and learn more about them.
