I am very excited about this presentation with Brian Kenney this coming Friday at the New York Library Association in Saratoga Springs, NY. Please consider attending!
Program Slots #5 & #6 2:15 PM – 5:00 PM
Hyperlinked Learning Experiences at Public Libraries: MOOCs & Beyond
Sponsor: PLS
This presentation will explore emerging models of connected, open learning – offered for free – with great potential for staff and the public. Can we support students of all kinds in Massive Open Online Courses? What’s the potential for professional development and lifelong learning when courses can gather the best of the best in a field and offer experiences and exploration anywhere? This two part program slot will explore new ideas and thinking about learning at the library.
Speakers:
Michael Stephens, San Jose State University / “Tame the Web”
Brian Kenney, White Plains Public Library
