Week 9
Podcasts, Video & Downloadable Audio
20. Discover YouTube and a few sites that allow users to upload and share videos.
21. Discover some useful search tools for locating podcasts.
22. The original Learning 2.0 post on e-books discusses downloadable titles from NetLibrary. While PLYMC has access to 2,768 NetLibrary e-books none of the titles are available in audio format. To establish a NetLibrary account, you must first create your account through the PLYMC link. Once you have a NetLibrary user name and password you can access NetLibrary directly and bypass the PLYMC site if you wish.
For downloadable audio titles check out the library’s Digital Books page and see what is available from PLYMC’s audio provider, OverDrive Audio Books.
For this “thing,” you need to familiarize yourself a bit with the structure of both e-book pages and get an idea of the types of titles you can find. Once you earn your MP3 player you'll be able to download and listen to an OverDrive title!
Don't forget to blog about your experience.
