Nebraska Learns 2.0: Google Keep & Hieroglyph
The Nebraska Learns 2.0 Thing for December is Google Keep.
With all of the holidays at this time of year, one thing that many people need is a way to take notes and make lists. While paper is reliable, it’s easy to forget and not all that easy to share unless all the involved parties are in the same room. So, in the spirit of not giving you too much extra to do at this time of the year, yet also showing you something that you might fine immediately useful, I present to you Google Keep.
Another facet of Nebraska Learns 2.0 is BookThing. Each month we pick a single title that we feel has relevance to librarianship and/or information theory. Some of the titles will be very obviously related; while others may not seem so on the surface but there is a connection. Your assignment will be to read the book and create a blog post answering some questions about the title.
The BookThing for December is Hieroglyph: Stories & Visions for a Better Future.
Nebraska Learns 2.0 is the Nebraska Library Commission’s ongoing online learning program. It is a self-discovery program which encourages participants to take control of their own learning and to utilize their lifelong learning skills through exploration and PLAY.
Each month, we offer you an opportunity to learn a new Thing (or lesson). You have all month to complete that Thing and receive one CE credit. You may choose which Things to do based on personal interest and time availability If the Thing of the month doesn’t interest you or if you are particularly busy that month, you can skip it.
If you are new to Nebraska Learns 2.0, your first assignment is to sign up to participate. This program is open to ALL Nebraska librarians, library staff, library friends, library board members and school media specialists.
We hope you’ll join your library colleagues in the fun as you learn about new and exciting technologies!
