Delivered my library staff development hour on my trip to Ostrava this morning. Seemed to go down well. I covered the conference in enough detail to satisfy the 'trickle down' requirements but also got to cover some of the non-work bits as well. From a gigabyte of photos I selected 30 ones I thought were the best plus some extra ones that set scenes or were unique in some way.

The highlight though for people seemed to be that they could choose how they navigated through the pictures and stories.

I'd thought of doing it all chronologically but then picked 8 or so 'themes'. On a slide with the 8 themes represented by a word in Czech, the PowerPoint would link off to whichever bit and then return to the 'title' slide. Folk got to guess / pick a word and if we didn't get through everything, it wasn't the end of the world. In fact, we just managed to do them all so I'd got it about right.
