#20 Relax & Reflect (Completion)

What were your favorite discoveries or exercises on this learning journey? Massive amounts of free games available on Yahoo! Chance to see missed TV programs on Hulu and Fancast. Music I want to hear on Finetune.

How has this program assisted or affected your lifelong learning goals? Hasn't.

Were there any take-aways or unexpected outcomes from this program that surprised you? That I actually completed it!!

What could we do differently to improve upon this program's format or concept? As you can tell from my blog title "Kicking and Screaming" I was not a voluntary participant of this program. Maybe you could do something about that.

If we offered another discovery program like this in the future, would you again choose to participate? I didn't CHOOSE to participate in this one.

#19 Gaming

Was it more complicated than you thought? Easier? It wasn't too bad. Of course, I like word games and puzzles, which are probably easier to manipulate than the arcade games.
Did you try anything that interested you? In the 5-minute Daily Games I checked out Sudoku Daily and Hollywood Jumble. In the other free games I checked out Armor Academy and Ball Lines.

#18 Maps and Geotagging

Did you find what you were looking for? Yes.
What surprised you about the program? Not all addresses are created equal. My neighborhood was blurry and my mom's neighborhood was quite clear and even the cars showed up very clearly.

#17 Avatars & Second Life

Are you ready to share your avatar with us? No. And since I'm not, I obviously won't be including an image of my avatar in this post.
Do you already live in Second Life? No.
If you don't already live in SL, would you like to live in Second Life? No.
Why or why not? I find that "First Life" gives me plenty to keep me busy in the "real" world with my "real" self.

#16 Online Applications & Tools

What did you think? Seems pretty cool. I don't usually spend time on the computer other than work time, but maybe I could spend some time checking out these online applications and tools.

#15 Search Engines

Do you prefer any of the metasearch engines over another? No.

Did anything surprise you about the results you received for your searches? No.

Do you see podcasting as a useful tool for Sno-Isle Libraries? Yes
Any ideas about which topics our patrons might be interested in hearing? No
