I have just compled Week 12. I did have problems with Week 10 Mashups, so I will go back to that module and focus on it. In the meantime I have completed everything else and what a big learning curve it has been for me.
As you can see from my earlier blogs I was havinggreat difficulties with getting access and not having a dashboard.  But I am thrilled that I perserved, as I have learnt so much that would not have been possible without this program.
The social networking in the library would be of great help to me in my interest in local history it would enable to to communicate with like minded people and build a very good profile for our area.
I was amazed at the number of tools available to reachc into the wider community which gave me hope, as in doing these modules by myself I felt rather isolated. I have now learnt the means by which I can communicate not only with the State Library but far beyond my known community and areas of communication.
All in all this is a great online learning tutorial for me and at times I have felt really empowered. Now it is time to go back to "mashups" feeling more confident.
