Reflections

A most amazing thing happened in my staffroom today. I was chatting with my wonderful colleagues about my studies in Information Learning Nexus and told them about the "wonder wheel" tool on Google. After demonstrating how the feature actually worked, there were loud exclamations of amazement and 'wonder'. "How did we not know about this?" they exclaimed. I too shared my amazement as well. Had it not been for this unit both myself and my fellow teachers would never have found out about 'wonder wheel' and the 'timeline' buttons in Google.

If I take nothing more away from this unit of study than this, I am still much more knowledgeable and appreciated by my colleagues than I was a month ago. They have asked me to share this knowledge with the rest of the staff so that all may benefit. Information sharing is truly a powerful thing!!
