Welcome to our Blog!

Welcome to blogging in the Information Literacy class. This blog is a place for all of us to post some thoughts and reactions while we learn about one of the most important new sources of information available online. While blogs are most often public journals with a single author, ours will demonstrate how a blog might be used with a group of learners to share information.

To keep this one organized for the entire class, I'll be posting prompts from time to time to which you will reply or "comment." In addition, each of your individual "journals" will be attached to this blog so that we may share reflections on learning throughout the course. I'll get your blog addresses once you have set up your account and link them all from our main blog page.

It will be interesting to see how each of our "voices" comes out here even though we will be able to talk to one another daily.

The Big 6 info will be quite useful in the upcoming year; the problem solving steps and strategies for implementing them will teach my students skills they can use all their lives. I enjoy increasing my own skills with technology and eagerly anticipate sharing with students this year. I'm not blowing smoke here: last year's tentative applications of these methodologies has already alerted me to pitfalls and obstacles as well as rewards. My own enjoyment of the process will help carry us through this combination of art, technology, and thinking skills. Sandy
