MHS Library Learning 2.0 for Library TAs Spring 2010

What is Web 2.0?
With Web 1.0 webmasters control the content of websites and online content. Web 2.0 refers to the second generation of the Web, which enables people with no specialized technical knowledge to create their own websites, to self-publish, create and upload audio and video files, share photos and information and complete a variety of other tasks. It’s important to understand what this is because Web 3.0 is already here. You will see it in college, the workplace and in your everyday life (if it’s not already there).

The 10 Things
During Library Learning 2.0 you will complete “The 10 Things” over the course of 8 weeks. These “things” include exploring creativity, blogging, photos and images, voice and video, cloud computing with online documents, social bookmarking, copyright intellectual property, information ethics and wikis.

Who will see it?
Library Learning is made up of 10 Things & 12 Activities, which you will complete over the course of 8 weeks. All of the assignments (activities) will be posted to a blog that you will create. This will be a public blog that you will be sharing with Mrs. Bosler (the Teacher Librarian), Mr. Hook (the principal), your parents and fellow library TAs. You will also be encouraged to comment on fellow students’ blogs and get people outside school to comment on your blog. You will receive extra credit for these comments.

How will I be graded?
