Blogs & Wikis Class

I taught an Adobe Connect class on Blogs and Wikis for Libraries faculty & staff on May 30. All of the materials (and the session recording) can be found here.

This was an exciting class for me, becuase it allowed me to try out some new philosophies I've been forming with regard to blogs and wikis (more so blogs).

Back when Rebecca B. and I taught our first blogging class in 2003, we focused primarily on the mechanics of starting a blog: Where to publish, how to publish, what to publish, etc.... Things have changed. This class was not so much about the specifics of making a blog as it was looking at blog content and how to disseminate it to different resources via RSS.

I also experimented with making a Google Reader Mash-Up blog for this class. You can see it here.
