Using the Cloud

• Understand converged devices are everywhere.

• Allow unfettered access to the cloud.

• Understand that the cloud may also be a valuable information resource.

• Utilize the cloud to save time and money.

Levine on “The Cloud”

• There are multiple options

• How to snychronize or back up those files

• How to think about privacy in this context

The cloud has been of tremendous interest to Australia and New Zealand for some time, but concerns over the legal jurisdiction and continued availability of data stored on offshore servers is leading to the development of private, Australian clouds that offer the same benefits.

The Potential of Learning 2.0

Learning 2.0 Across the Globe

Don't ask me the number of libraries or organizations? With programs having been run by the National Library of Norway, the State Library of Victoria, Maryland public libraries statewide, 23 Things on a Stick for multiple libraries and organizations, I really have no way of knowing the total impact or number of organizations that have adopted the program. But from my delicious links and growing communications folder I can tell you this... the number is definitively over 700 and more then likely hovers somewhere just under 1000 organizations worldwide.

The impact of Localization

http://wp.nmc.org/horizon-anz-2009/section/location-based-learning/

What does this mean for school librarians?

• Localized learning

• Spokes of the learning across communities

• Issues in privacy and awareness
