I've been receiving RSS Feeds for a while and use Google Reader. I find that it is a great way to find news and new information from sources that I frequent. It also helps to keep all those emails out of my inbox!!

7-1/2 Lifelong Learning Habits

2008-07-10T19:11:00.000-07:00

1. Begin with the end in mind. Determine the goal. Then plan.

2. Accept responsibility for your own learning. Value and take pride in your learning. Be an active participant.

3. View problems as challenges. Is this a crisis or a chance to learn?

4. Have confidence in yourself as a competent, effective learner. The words you use to describe yourself become reality.

5. Create your own learning toolbox. Books, technology, classes, mentors, friends, webpages.

6. Use technology to your advantage. It is a tool to make life easier.

7. Teach/mentor others. The best way to learn is to teach someone else. It is a good way to give back to the community.

1/2. Play – be curious – read!

Library 2.0 Challenge

The summer of 2008 will be spent learning some technologies that I hope I will be able to teach to our patrons. I have LOTS of experience in the technology area, but there is always new things to learn. I thought the Library 2.0 Challenge format would be great for setting aside time to play with the technology.

So, here we go!....
