REFLECTIONS - CONTENT CURATOR

• To be a Content Curator is better as opposed to being a Content consumer because it enables one to organize the vast information gathered from the web into different categories so that it can easily be retrieved when needed. Little time is wasted and spent on retrieving relevant or connected information in the same area. It also keeps you up to date in your professional development because you constantly gather,sort and categorize information related to your particular field.
• Although I may be ready to play this role,  I am still not very confident about it. Initially, I will probably be more of a content consumer and gradually become a content curator as my library keeps on growing.
• I will benefit from organising and sharing resources in that it will help my Personal Learning Network (PLN) to grow rapidly.This will also be partly because , I will be able to access resources others have already organised. I will also increase in depth of knowledge in specific areas by utilizing tags of related key words.
•  I would like to recommend it to new users of technology so that all the useful information on the web that they find can be immediately sorted, organised and tagged in specific themes so that it is easily retrieved when needed.
