Hello everybody this my week 9 blog for LIS 568 This chapter we talk about professional development and wikis. I found most of the readings kind of short I was looking to read a lot more but I found I myself checking out all the other features of them instead.
I liked the wiki matrix website and while I've never actually created a wiki this seemed like an excellent tool for when I do. As always the Simpson chapters were informative. I hadn't realized how complicated something like distance learning could be.
In reading the Richardson chapter I learned what RSS feeds are and how to use them.
Lastly I liked the Marc Isseks presentation. Presentations are never easy but this describes ways to make them better. I made sure to print them out because they seem like simple, straight forward tips that would help not only me but my students as well.
