CSLA School Library Learning 2.0 Begins.........

There is excitement in the air. The winter session of CSLA's School Library Learning 2.0 begins today. This is important to me. The program has been a lifesaver for me. Learning all these new tools has been wonderful. I can't wait to learn more. There are so many wonderful web2 tools to discover. In the 23 things we studied, we came out with at least 60 more tools to use. I applaud this organization for being a leader and innovator of school library learning.
Web2 tools are so important to open the web to everyone. The internet opened new worlds for us, but Web2 has innovated the world. We can only imagine what is next. Things like livescribe coming out in 2008, and secondlife are tools we will all be using. Chris Duke aka Topher Zwiers, is an expert on secondlife in education. His dedication to lifelong learning is incredible.
Very interesting to see what is happening in the world of technology. I want to be a part of it.
For me, the sessions CSLA offers are perfect.
