reflective excercise

I touched on this subject in my last blog.

The whole experience has been fun and frustrating at the same time. I do not want to stop learning new things. Technology is moving so fast and furious that what I am learning now will be changed in some way in the near future. So how do I keep up with the changes? I have to be realistic that I can not.

We were fortunate in our advocates at our branch. Valerie and Toni did a wonderful job in helping us stumble through the exercises. They kept me going even though there were times that I wanted to quit.

There were a lot of surprises. I had no clue as all that is out there in cyberspace.

I had a hard time finding the time to do justice to the program.

I have no regrets in participating in the program. In fact I will be going back to redo some of the exercises. I would definitely do it again.

I hope that the program goes on.

podcasts

it was fun to explore the podcasts. I checked out several. I enjoyed the npr site. I also checked out the ones regarding the library. I am not sure how to get the rss feed to this blog. I'll ask someone for help and keep working on it. I've noticed that sometimes the instructions are not clear. The last couple of excercises have been especially tough for me.
