LIS 768 Class Review
Michael Stepehsn LIS 768 was on of the most engaging and enjoyable classes I’ve taken at Dominican so far. Although our class met only a few times I feel as though I was abloe to constantly interact and communicate ideas to my classmates via Twitter and blogging. Dr Stephens was able to communicate his vast knowledge of technological concepts and particpatory services to our class in a way which was interesting and rewarding.
I was aware of many of the technological tools that we had used in this class but I had not put a lot of thought into how to use these tools to interact with library users. This was the most important aspect of the class to me, as stated by Mick Jacobsen via Twiter on our first day class “Learn the tech and the reasons you will need both.” It was extremely interesting to post our group project online and have immediate feedback from librarians around the world via the #LIS768 and messages to Dr Stephens.
I am upset about only one thing, and that is that Michael doesn’t teach more classes. I could only hope that my other LIS teachers will be as passionate as engaged in their classrooms and allow us as students to play and discover.
