Thing 15

Library 2.0. I think it is a major improvement from when I was learning to use a library. I remember drawers with little cards that helped me find books and research material. I LOVE the endless possibilities with library 2.0, however, when I am researching a topic, I look up and 3 hours have flown by! It is great to have this much information at our fingertips (and at students' fingertips), but it can be time consuming!!!

You dated yourself by mentioning the drawers! Yes, learning to execute efficient searches is something to teach our kids. Just like using the library for books. Get the book or books that have exactly what you need vs. browsing. Both have their place.
