Putting the ‘Social’ in Social Software

We had a successful session at today’s continuing education (CE) course, held at the University of Ottawa Library. (A great computer lab complete with projected sound.) It was an interesting learning experience for me as a teacher, particularly as I try to see how the dynamics of the classroom can be facilitated, or not, and the implications of the learning theories I am studying when applied to my practice.

I was very interested in listening to the views of my colleagues who participated in the workshop – health librarians from across the country. The brainstorming session at the end of the workshop gave everyone an opportunity to talk; I’ll blog some of my reflections on the points raised – soon. In the meantime, enjoy the presentation.

    Dean,
    I am a bit disappointed that I flew all the way from Vancouver to Ottawa to find out that your session was FULL:) Anyways, I am glad to hear the OTHER people enjoyed it. Valeria
