Activity #7 Google Books

This has to be the best thing yet! I love being a signed in google member to start with so this just gets better and better. A book I found confusing as a 17 year old was "Tirra Lirra by the River" by Jessica Anderson. I had to read it for my HSC! Yet, I have kept all my notes and essays and the book itself to this day!
Not only was this book on Google Books but there were review too. I feel so assured that the reviews found this book to be a heavy read even though it is a short story. I am adding to my lsit of read books, favorite books and know that this will be something I will come back to and use more regularly. I will use it at home and found a book that i have been meaning to buy for some time! The uses for Google Books in the Discovery Centre are limitless.

Infact more and more I see that iPads and e-readers aer PLD's and therefore you could eb walking around with your own "library" with ease! We should be using ebooks more! We are on the way to eLearning every day, with growing technology use and availability, a more connected community, communication skills being so easy online that the future of learning will soon be m-Learning - MOBILE LEARNING!
