The power of images


I originally created the Academic Library 2.0 Concept Model for a presentation because I was having trouble expressing the idea verbally. I hadn’t completely understood the explanatory power of diagrams until the great response I received both from my class and now here on the web. I am glad I took Systems Analysis. I got a solid background in how to display ideas through diagrams. They are definitely a great way to translate concepts between groups. I just noticed another post focusing on how the model can be used for explaining the concept.

I have found that the visual image of Web 2.0 – the extended mindcloud – has been a great visual starter at sessions I have run. ‘Participation’ and ‘Remix’ provide two good concepts to open up the discussion with people, before actually going into showing and discussing social software. I am also adding Michael’s Academic 2.0 concept model to my discussion pool.
