Evaluation of two online reference tools

This is an evaluation I wrote for class. I needed to ask the same reference question to two different sources. I chose the Internet Public Library and AskUsNow! The AskUsNow folks were at the Enoch Pratt Library and did a great job answering my question and finding me sources all at a distance:

If you remember from my biography on the discussion board, my research interests are in using games for learning. My latest research project has been looking at using cooperative design to create an instructional video game. So far, the game that was designed has only come to life in the design team’s drawings and models. Eventually, I will need to build a working prototype that can be played, so, I decided to use this assignment to learn about a programming language named Python and its use in three-dimensional games.

Reading and class reflection from 2-19-2009

This week, we talked about two readings: A truly useful bat is one found in the hands of a slugger by Grob, and Government information policy research: Importance, approaches, and realities by McClure and Jaeger. I thought Bat was a good article because it not only describes how evaluations can be used as a valid research method, but, it also had a How to succeed in business kind of vibe to it.

I don’t think Kelly Rippa does her own laundry.

Jimmi Simpson is having the best month ever!

Our favorite Bloomsburg acting alum has been on CSI: Grissom’s last episode, House, and will be on Psyche this week. I was his RA in college…ok, not on my wing, but the other wing…and I was only an RA for one summer…but still. I may have been in a play with him, too…maybe not WITH him but in the same short play show.

He is having the best month ever!
