Web 2.0 Instruction for Students
The LibrarianInBlack has links to what I think is a great idea for getting students to make the most of Web 2.0 technologies. Scholastici.us is publishing a five part series for Student Productivity Week. The first installment is called “Beyond Wikipedia: 20 references you can’t do without.” Following topics include “Books on the web” and “The 10 Best Facebook Apps for Students and 3 to Avoid.” What I like about this is that it focuses on things they already use, rather than teaching them something new, which they are less likely to incorporate into what they do. I can also envison an in-person presentation on this, or an module of an instruction session or reference appointment that incorporates these types of lessons.
