There are many tools out there that will allow you and your classmates to share conversations and/or information together. Here are just a few. Try out at least one of these and embed or link your creation in your blog posting. Also, post how you might use these technologies in school or your personal life
Padlet: This site lets you create a wall on which you and your friends can add “sticky notes.” The sticky notes can include text as well as images, audio, and video files you embed by linking to the online address where they are stored. You don’t need an account to set up a wall, but you do need to have an email address. If you share a wall address, anyone can contribute sticky notes to it without having an account.

3. What were your favorite discoveries or exercises on this learning journey? 4. Do you have any suggestions or changes for this tutorial? Students have been completing this tutorial for about 5 years. We have made many changes thanks to all the posts and comments over the years. Please, seriously consider your recommendations and add some that will make this a more useful experience for library assistants in the semesters ahead.

VoiceThread: A VoiceThread is a collaborative, multimedia slide show that holds images, documents, and videos, and allows people to comment on the slides by typing, with a microphone, with a webcam, or by phone. You can use VoiceThread to have conversations, but you can also use it to record an online presentation. You do need an account to create or comment on VoiceThreads.

Diigo: This site allows you to keep track of all your website bookmarks online, so that you can access them from any computer. You can also share your bookmarks with other people. When you bookmark a webpage, you add as many keyword “tags” as you like to it, so that you can find it later with any of the tags. You can also add a description, highlighting, and sticky notes to the websites you save.
