No library resources on list of top 100 learning tools


  Interesting blurb from Brock Read at the Chronicle of Higher Education:

  http://chronicle.com/wiredcampus/index.php?id=2288

  Basically there are no library resources on The Centre for Learning & Performance Technologies’ list of
Top 100 Tools for Learning. 

  Steven Bell suggests at ACRLog (http://tinyurl.com/2rxvmk) that it may be "a case of our failing to create
awareness about these resources to the faculty and researchers who should identify them as valuable
e-learning resources."

  But Read (referring to comments by Stephen Downes, a senior researcher for Canada’s National Research
Council) suggests that perhaps "the lack of library services on the list could be evidence of bad tools,
not a lack of publicity."
