The document discusses creating conversations for portable, participatory, and personalized learning in libraries. It suggests using various technologies like Evernote, Google Docs, blogging platforms and social networks to foster collaborative learning and knowledge sharing among students. Specific strategies proposed include using mobile apps to bookmark resources, capture notes, import photos and scans, evaluate information sources through subject guides, engage in collaborative writing projects, and reflect on learning through blogging. The goal is to cultivate relationships and enchantment through participatory culture and invite student engagement and creativity in shared learning.
