Thing #23

What were your favorite discoveries or exercises on this learning journey? Anything that worked smoothly. The 2.0 award-winning sites, the avatar.
How has this program assisted or affected your lifelong learning goals? It's helped me to become more "with it" when it comes to new sites. Technology didn't stop in 2005 when I graduated college, and I feel more up to date than before I started.
Were there any take-aways or unexpected outcomes from this program that surprised you? It tickled me to be allowed to work on some of the assignments for this program at my work computer. It's nice to be able to play around with things and not have disapproval that what I am doing isn't work related, even if it's not directly for an active customer transaction. Being allowed to play better enables us to help others.
What could we do differently to improve upon this program’s format or concept?And last but not least… the program itself worked well, was nice and neat and easy to do, where equipment allowed.
If we offered another discovery program like this in the future, would you again chose to participate? I would agree to participate but only if there were more of an effort on my library system's part to ensure that all the equipment is updated and working so that the exercises can be completed in a normal amount of time. I can't tell you how many of my precious planning hours were wasted on just trying to get some of this stuff to work!
How would you describe your learning experience in a few words or a few sentences, so we can share our successes and promote this program? Rushed, frustrated, distracted, but all the more worldy for it. Better able to help customers with techie questions.

23things I am almost done with!

This is typed with Zoho! I don't feel anything moving to say bubbling up into my brain. I could talk about my glorious planning time that I got today! I was able to complete the notes that I had taken during my gaming team meeting, and I continued work on the storytime packets I have been reviewing. And of course, I worked on my ever-lovin' 23 things.
