About the programme

In this hands-on learning programme a team from Murdoch Library helps you explore free online tools that can be used for teaching, learning, research and managing daily work.

It runs from 23 June to 28 July 2009

It is open to all Murdoch staff and students. It is aimed at all levels - from nervous beginner to confident social-networking maven.

Here’s a webcam conversation between Kathryn and Kate where we talk about what the programme involves and how to get the best out of it, Web 2.0: easier, faster, friendlier. What’s it all about? : Webcam Conversation .
