Thing 2 - Library 2.0

Library media services will continue to change and improve as media specialists use web tools more and more. Many of our digital native learners already use web tools to share recommendations on books and videos with others out there. However, the students often need to do their work (as does their media specialist) at home because schools block access to the newest technologies at school. As policies change at school, the library media specialist will be able to empower their library patrons. Media center programming will then change just as it should.

I really hope you are right about a relaxing of the firewalls. A part of a student's education should be about safe use of the Internet, and we don't prepare them for that when they get at home on the computer, if we give them no practical experience. Keep blogging about your 23 Things experiences, and have fun exploring...
