Week 10: #23 Is this really the end? Or just the beginning....

What were your favorite discoveries and or exercises? Blog Posting and adding pictures to it.
How has this assisted or affected lifelong learning goals? I plan to spend more time going back over what I've rushed through and try to set the learning into my long term memory.
What ideas do you have for using these technologies at HCPL? I was thinking it would be fun to create a Home School Texas Bluebonnet club Wiki. We could share ideas and impressions about the books among our group as well as branch out to other Home School groups throughout the state. This is something I may take on.

Week 9: # 22 Downloadable Media

I found one of my favorite authors and series on HCPL's digital site. Dave Barry and his Peter Pan trilogy. I listened to the to the first two minutes of "Peter and the Secret of Rundoon." I can't wait to listen to the whole book. This is a great discovery.

Week 9: #21 Podcasts, Smodcasts!

I looked at the various podcast directories and liked Podcast Alley best. I was able to select a subject and then select a particular podcast that I wanted to listen to.

Post post for Week 8: #19

Now I feel like a real goose. I didn't realize that the first Week 8: #19 posted. So I now have 2 of them.

Go figure.

Week 8: # 19 Web-based Applications: They're not just for desktops

I just finished browsing Zoho Writer and created a Story Time document in it. I had thought that I would just copy and paste it into the Story Time Database, but that didn't work. So, I copied bit-by-bit and pasted that into the database.

When I tried to Publish the Post, I got and error message as follows:

Week 8: # 19 Web-based Applications: They're not just for desktops

I played around with the Zoho Writer. I created a Story Time document in it and thought I would just copy and paste into the storytime database. But, that didn't work, so I just typed it in myself. I was able to copy and paste pieces though. That did help.

I'm looking into the Zoho Planner and thinking about using that as my SRP planner.
