teaching

Speaking of teaching (see commenting son "fireside") I've agreed to do a one day tutorial at User Interface 8 East (seeUser Interface 7 West Conference for a flavor of the event).

What I'd like to know is, if you went to a one day seminar, what would you like to learn? What would you like to leave teknowing? And if you have read (or skimmed) my book, what from it would you like to to go over in depth, in a class situation?

I'm open to suggestions-- there is really so much I could talk about, I could do a semester... but I got to figure out how to cut it down to a day!

I read your book (yes straight through) and have used it as a desk reference. I'd like to learn more about developing controlled vocabularies. I'm also curious about how to use metadata standards, like Dublin Core. And on and on, following that metadata, searching, vocabulary theme.

I'd happily participate in a whole day of that, but I admit I might be weird. I got so into that aspect of IA after applying some of those ideas to a site, I signed up for a cataloging course at the local library school. It's been really helpful, but still I want more.
