Reflection

At first I thought we were asked to create a real blog for the real library users. That task seemed overwhelming but at the same time exciting. The reason my blog got named Russian Story time is because I thought I would use it with the Russian families attending my programs and post information/resources useful for the group. It turned out my blog was created just for reporting my progress... Some disappointment there but also big relief.

I am happy I had the opportunity to learn about web 2.0, it does not seen to be Terra Incognita to me any longer, even though I still feel like a stranger in this domain.

If I could make any suggestions, I would recommend to have it set up more like a group exercise under the supervision of an experienced user, where participants could share ideas and help each other.

I would also like to see more individual approach. For instance, children's staff could create the blogs about their programming for the library users (kind of what I had in mind in the beginning). I'd like to explore this possibility and also take any future training available.

Thank you! It was fun and also very useful.
