Presentations/ “Show and tell”s

0
0

In a previous post I proposed 1/2 hour presentations about particular Web 2.0 tools from a variety of people (both planners and participants). I realize that MY conception of what these should be may be different from you all, and that my conception has evolved to two types of presentations:

a) “Show and tell” where someone shares how THEY use a certain tool, what they like and dislike about it, etc. This can be centered around a particular product (Facebook), show a variety of products (RSS feed readers) and if the person desires can go into the general theory of the TOOLS in general and their web 2.0ness.

These sharing stints can be short, sweet, and geared towards showing people what something looks like.  Things that enhance users’ online lives but may not be central to our official JPLL endeavors (working groups) would be included in this.

b) “Hands on presentation” where someone leads the attendees in actually using and putting to use a tool or product.

I propose these presentations and possible presenters (in no particular order):

  1. Facebook (Athena?)
  2. Library Toolbar (John?)
  3. Majax (Chris?)
  4. LibGuides (Mira?)
  5. Wikis
  6. Google Tools (Athena? Mira? Pam? Jeff? Whomever uses the many new iGoogle services offered and wants to show us all what their account looks like)
  7. RSS feeds?
  8. Zotero (Pam?)
  9. del.ici.ous

IF you want a presentation on blogs I suggest we ask Desiree, our trusty student refdesk assistant, to speak about her participation in the blogosphere. I’ve already asked her and she agrees if she’s around and available.

IF we want to talk more about educational components of the social networking thing, we could possibly include the TeacherTube that Pam shared with us, or MERLOT.

What others? IS that too much? Please give your comments on what should be in or out? Plus, how much time do we need for each?
