Welcome to the State Library of Tasmania's Learning 2.0 Program
Listen to audio here
Congratulations to all of you who have chosen to participate in this program and who are on your way to developing an understanding of the Web 2.0 tools readily available in today’s society. Each week we will place a new post here which will give a little run down of the week's activity. We will also send out an email, with explanations, encouragement and sites of interest. To begin, click on the heading of each week, or the underlined link, to take you to the activities page. There, you will need to follow the steps to complete the week's 'thing'.
On the side of the pages you will find some other links, a 'Site of the week' link that will have a new interesting website to explore each week, the tracking log, where you can monitor your progress during the program, and the Participants' Blogs page, where you can find a list of the blogs being created by staff at your library. There you can click on each one, to see what your colleagues have been up to. Keep tuned to this area, as it is a good place to be inspired and entertained.
