Project Two: Creating a Prezi

My completed project for Project Two is two-fold: it consists of a Prezi presentation regarding the NETS standards, made available below:



The second part of my project involves a Word document--explaining how each NETS Standard example adheres to the six steps involved in the ASSURE model. This document can be found by clicking here.

What I adored most about this project was that it involved my own critical thinking to encourage the critical thinking of future students. As someone who hopes to eventually pursue academic librarianship with professor status, I fully understand the importance of involving young students in myriad technological tools. In this semester alone, I have experienced sites such as Lino, Voki, Blogger and Prezi; in my LIS program I have been introduced to tools like Google Hangout, Camtasia, WikiSpaces and many social media sites. These sites and tools all come prepped with their strength and weaknesses--each with the potential to highlight various student works and help in the research and/or teaching processes. I cannot begin to say how grateful I am to be equipped with the necessary skill-set to someday teach these tools to others!
