So, I haven't posted very much but I have been thinking about this stuff quite a bit. I was fortunate enough to hear Will Richardson speak when he was at Claremont (I got him to sign my book!) and I really think we are so much farther ahead here that many other places in terms of using Web 2.0 stuff. Here, at least, we are all willing to learn and from what Will Richardson said that is most definitely not the case everywhere. At one point I raised my hand to ask a question and started with "I am totally on board with you on this..." and he immediately chimed in with "Oh, I hear a 'but' coming next." Which, of course I assured him was not the case. Anyhow, even though I think we are doing fairly well in terms of willingness, personally I feel like I have so much to learn.
Today I accessed a couple of webpages for a school called Northwest High (not sure where it is) but they are doing podcasts in a way that I would love to do. To see what they are doing, check out these two links:

I am hoping with Moodle I will be able to put some things like these on the library webpage. One of the things that I need to find out would be what the copyright issues are. I am fairly sure that I need to get permission from either the publisher or the author.
