Learning 2.0

Home> Learning 2.0

  Learning 2.0 is online learning program that encourages staff to learn more about emerging technologies on the web that are changing the way people, society and libraries access information and communicate with each other.

Over the course of the next twelve weeks, Yarra Plenty staff will be encouraged to partake in 23 discovery exercises to help them become familiar with blogging, RSS news feeds, tagging, wikis, podcasting, online applications, and video and image hosting sites. Each Yarra Plenty satff member who completes the 23 activities receives a USB stick and certificate and goes into the draw for a laptop.

We would like to encourage any other staff at other libraries to also participate. We are happy to add add other participants blogs to our register when to progress to exercise 2,
but unfortunately the "reward" for completing the project is only open to Yarra Plenty participants.
