Good selection of royalty free music for students to use in projects

We have a couple of poll plugins installed which we were planning on using at some point. I think initially we want to keep the ning as streamlined as possible, as to not overwhelm newcomers, but eventually we can add more of this type of content.

We need to analyse and come to a better understanding of the impact of technology, and in particular our 1:1 implementation in the Secondary School, on students and their media habits. Asking students to be using books more may not be the answer, and in fact may be a reactionary approach. Maybe we need to reduce the number of books on shelves to provide room for better designed spaces e.g. 'sound-proofed' smaller areas where 4-5 people can plug a laptop into a large flat screen and collaborate over research or other online/multimedia task Maybe we need to set up podcasting stations and higher-end computers for enhanced video work in areas that all can access, not just in specialist rooms Maybe we need to initiate more discussions based on the reading material available, eg latest magazines and encourage higher order thinking through interaction with other communities and libraries via video conferencing and virtual classrooms

those are quotes from the post. this is part of what i envision for the future of our library.

Wow - I thought that was your own thoughts - definitely on point

there is a script for "class" enrollment.

Very nice - i shared it with the group - this is what melinda was talking about for lunch - it can also do the service signups

I think this is an important event for us to attend. I'm not sure how I can move my curriculum forward without it. (How's the budget looking?)
