Hello

Hi am a student at UB finishing up my library degree. One of my classes requires that I post about the class on a blog, so I decided to open one up here. My classmates and my instructor will be reading this, so you guys don't have to..hee hee.

"Covers the study of computer operations and uses in school library media centers, including the integration of computer applications in the instructional program and management of the school library media center. Students discuss the selection of computing hardware and software and the use of current and emerging technologies, including those for students with special needs. Technological issues, such as copyright and fair use, and Internet safety are addressed. The course will employ a hands-on approach through projects and research in the use of computer technology as it relates to school libraries."

sorry it's a private wiki so I can't give you the address.

The blogging is just for some reflection on the material that was covered in class.

- Second you might wind up bloging about other things than the class is that ok?
-third Maybe if you like this site some of your classmates will sign up for it also
-Fourth Using the defaultface is fine but if you get more open about blogging you can uploaded a small user picture or other avatar
- Fitfh there is a way to put up profile imformation
- sixth (I shouldn't speak for others) but if there is something you need help with on this site I'm sure someone would help you out.

My point is welcome to the site and I hope you like it. I can't say if anyone from out side you class will read your blog, but if it is interesting they might. If reading it gives someone insit they might as well. by the way just so you know comments are very common here. Also if when you signed up you gave an e-mail account that is why the comments show up in your e-mail. If you don't want to respond to the comment on the site and want to respond to someone personaly just hit reply and type away and the message should go their e-mail. Again I'm not sure if you have it set up that way. In any event I will shut up now and say enjoy the rest of the weekend.
