Odyssey 4 - Westling with Landscape of Sharing Video

It is exciting to know about new technology of sharing video on website, YouTube. Most people enjoy searching videos from YouTube and sharing their thoughts and ideas by uploading their videos on the website.

How do we embed video in the blog? Although it is simple and easy to do, I can wrestle for a while to get it done. I struggled with how to do it and make it work. This is an exploration of new information landscape and an experience of learning and gaining new knowledge via technology. This exactly what information literacy all about 'Learn by learning' and 'Learn by doing'. The learning experience encourages us to take a step out, to find information, to solve the problem, to answer a question, to lead us to another research question; and then to embark us on another journey of exploration and learning. Information Literacy empowers us, engages us in information and turns us to be information literates and active citizens.

The following video 'Your Public Library' describes how public libraries connect people to inforamtion and support the community learning. Enjoy the show!
