Final words

It took me soooo long to get to this point that I feel that I should go back to the beginning and start all over again! Although I spent many hours working on the lessons, I didn't have enough time to really get it all down. I loved the program, though, and actually understand a lot more terms. I loved the little videos that taught in plain English.
After going on Facebook (which I wouldn't have gone on without this program), I found out that some of my family and nieces and nephews are on it, and they have friended me. It will be a great way this summer of keeping in touch with some people that I haven't seen in a couple of years.
I know that the purpose of the lessons is to think about how you could apply them to the library that you work in, and I have been critical of how much work that would take. In my own case, I am responsible for everything in my school library and teach classes, too. There are just not enough hours in the day. I think the best thing to do is to focus on using one new thing at a time and use what you think would work best in your own situation. But I am very glad that I went through the program. I certainly feel more in touch with what is happening in technology.
