Notes from Elluminate q&a session with Prof. Tash

Notes from Heather Johnson 2/3 (Jessica copied from blog "comments" section)

Hey girls...I went to the online session. Okay, this is what he is looking for-background on goodreads:

-how it was developed
-purpose of goodreads
-how it has expanded-
Then, we are to teach the class how libraries would use goodreads: (he suggested researching 2 to 3 libraries that use goodreads)

- Also:-how the libraries like it-what they do with it

Another group asked (they're doing myspace) if they could create their own myspace page demonstrating how a library would use myspace, he said, that was great and he advised incorporating things from different libraries who used myspace. Once we get our research down, we can then discuss how we want to put this together.

I was also thinking we could each research a different library, that way we each participated and then we can split up the other topics to research. I was wondering if I could also research how goodreads has expanded...is that ok with your girls? That leaves how it was developed and it's purpose. Then, we each answer the other questions according to the library we each research. He also suggested really practicing our presentation before, so we'll definitely have to set up a few elluminate session before hand.

Jessica- you already have your library to research, but I was wondering how did you find it?Thank you girls. I'll post this on the blog as well.

Good-night...Heather
