Course Evaluation

1) How well does this course meet your expectations / learning objectives?
I have met my expectations which were to learn more about web 2.0 technologies and how they can be used by library services, particularly to begin to promote uses in our outreach service in North staffordshire.
2) What are the difficulties encountered in accessing the course materials on the Internet at your workplace which have NOT been reported before?
Being a part time user, I always intended to complete most of the course at home, but despite a rather negative response from IT at the beginning of the course I have had no problems accessing my blog and posting from work.
3) Did you need to seek the permission of your trust IT before you accessed certain course materials on the Internet?
I contacted the IT department before commencing the course and was aware of the tools which may present a difficulty. I have not asked for any further permission as I have chosen to work from home for reasons stated above.
4) Do the readings meet the learning objectives of each topic?
The readings were very comprehensive in the breadth of coverage of each topic and showed a good range of styles and delivery which made them interesting and easier to learn from.
5) What is the average amount of time you spent on the course each day?
I found it difficult to spend time each day due to personal committments at home and work committments whilst at work but probably between 45 mins and 1.30 hours.
6) How do you find the interaction among participants of the course?
I think people all made the effort to include all members and there were some really useful and supportive comments.
7) Will you continue blogging and/or reading RSS after the course?
Yes, I intend to start a blog with my husband for personal use and will continue to use my NLH RSS feeds in a much more positive way.
