It has been a wonderful week in and out of the media center. I spent a great deal of time discussing the reference section with Mary D. I have become much more familiar with the Destiny program. She was very patient in explaining ways I could use filters in order to find the specific information I need. This can be so useful when analyzing collection data. I look forward to beginning work on my weeding project. Technology like this makes clerical work so much easier so that we can spend more time focusing on the students!
I have continued discussing my information literacy lesson with my collaborating teacher, Mrs. M. We decided on the topic of The Three Branches of Government. I'm still piecing the details together in my head, but I've begun creating the pathfinder. You can find it here: https://sites.google.com/site/the3branchespathfinder/home
I believe I'll create a Glog for my ethical use project. I've begun the online poster, adding links and video clips. I think it will be a useful tool for teachers and students, and look forward to using it with my information literacy lesson.
My hours spent in the media center so far have been wonderful. Each day brings confirmation that this is my calling.
