Library+Thing

For your Media Log assignment, you are required to read/view/listen to (etc.) 50 items (see the assignment requirements on eclass for specific information). You are then required to log each item on [|Library Thing].

Here is a brief introduction to [|Library Thing] to help you get started.

Because I have set some specific criteria for the Media Log assignment, you need to ensure that you include each piece of information in your entries. I set up a sample item for you to look at, with fields created to meet the assignment criteria. [|Check out this sample entry here.]

I also set up my Display Styles to ensure that each item in my library displays the exact information that is required for this assignment. If we can all do this, it will make it easier for me to mark and for everyone in the class to see exactly what we all have included in our personal libraries.

We will also need to 'connect' with one another on Library Thing in order to share libraries, and so that I can assess your personal libraries. Also, think about the fact that at the end of this course, each of you will have your own database of at least 50 items, which will be available to everyone in the class. We will have a remarkable collection of shared resources that we can access and draw on in the future!

To make sharing easier, I have created a group for our class on Library Thing. The group is: []. I have it currently set to be a 'closed' group' so I will have to invite each of you to join.
