Hi! I had to post a very quick blog entry since I just saw the coolest thing. I am sitting in an internet cafe in Edinburgh Scotland... posting homework and working on my webpage (fyi - this is extremely difficult in an internet cafe). I just looked over and saw a young guy paging through a comic book using Google Scholar. It is too cool! I realized he was not a native English speaker and he was using the comic book to learn English or at least improve his English. It was really cool to watch him sound out the words and see him using the page through technique. The images and digital quality was excellent and it totally made sense to see this in action. Big kudos to google!
It was a big librarian moment for me, even if I did have to keep it to myself.
Too cool for school!
This blog intends to discuss issues related to education from an international perspective. Libraries will be a highlighted topic as well. Enjoy!
