I just updated it. ;-)<BR/><BR/>akochan: Glad you've dropped by! If we're ever at a conference together again I hope you'll come up to say hi and let me shake your hand. It's good to know you got something valuable out of the presentation.<BR/><BR/>Nancy: That's the idea. ;-) I hope to someday lift your idea of handing our chocolate during a presentation. I've never been present at one of your talks but I heard you do it in the audio. Let me know if you're ever in Winnipeg. ;-)<BR/><BR/>Donna: I'm glad there was something there that caught your interest. It was a little intimidating talking about information management ideas to a room full of librarians ... information mavens in their own right. ;-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11154418.post-44995644761267522032007-05-11T12:45:00.000-05:002007-05-11T12:45:00.000-05:00Hi Darren,I have just viewed the slides from your ...Hi Darren,<BR/><BR/>I have just viewed the slides from your presentation. I am a teacher-librarian who is trying to spread the word about how web 2.0 tools can be used in our profession and I greatly appreciate the examples and the diagrams you used. They illustrate so well collaborating, creating and sharing beyond school walls.<BR/><BR/>DonnaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11154418.post-86490858196709957762007-05-10T08:04:00.000-05:002007-05-10T08:04:00.000-05:00Well, the serendipity continues because in 2 weeks...Well, the serendipity continues because in 2 weeks I'm going to be hanging out for two days with school librarians in Portugal. Your ideas just gave me a ton of new ideas. So I'll carry this a bit further afield! <BR/><BR/>THANKS!Nancy Whitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01374074594611764684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11154418.post-57207615696879682692007-05-10T06:48:00.000-05:002007-05-10T06:48:00.000-05:00Hi Darren,I really appreciated your presentation. ...Hi Darren,<BR/><BR/>I really appreciated your presentation. As a matter of act, this is second time I have been to your prsentation. The last time was at Personal Leanring Environments Symposium which was held at the University of Manitoba. I am glad that I went again. Your presentation gave many interesting case studies of how students are engaging themsevels through social networking tools in your class. And the underlying message is that people learn by doing and by connecting to actual friends and people in relation to what they are doing and leanring. Your enthusiasm and excitement of your students learning were palpable throughout the presentation. Without those, it could have been just a demonstration of various social networking tools. Thanks a lot!<BR/><BR/>Thanks also for candidly sharing your original idea about Twitter and your change about it in its usefulness shortly after. Many of the social networking tools can be said the same, probably: Unless you get involved with them, it would be hard to appreciate what they do to you and mean to you. So active engagement and then criticism or a opinion or two can follow. <BR/><BR/>I look foward to reviewing your presentation piece again.<BR/><BR/>AkochanAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11154418.post-29861678266094675432007-05-10T05:26:00.000-05:002007-05-10T05:26:00.000-05:00Hey Darren!Happy to be a part of your preso!Just a...Hey Darren!<BR/><BR/>Happy to be a part of your preso!<BR/><BR/>Just a quick something, my blog/link changed, it's no longer opensource.christophercraft.com and it is now<BR/><BR/>www.crucialthought.com<BR/><BR/>Thanks!<BR/><BR/>Chris CraftAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14159705510161241672noreply@blogger.com
