Notes on 5443 Readings

Module 1

Harzell Needs Assessment 1,1 I have always known that I am a what I would call a "go-getter" but have never been one to take the credit for work being done. My identification as an INFJ hit home in many aspects. I "know" that at times I am right, but do not like to exert my knowledge or influence for fear of not getting along with others who are part of a collaborative process. Benefits of Collaboration 1.2 The idea of as a teacher-librarian is a creative and new idea. Having been an educator for sixteen years, I feel that I do have a lot of knowledge to contribute to the "teacher" side of the collaboration process. However, with the increasing knowledge I am learning from my SLIS study I feel that I can incorporate this to the benefit of the educational setting. Like the video of the principal stated, as well as the administrator, the librarian has the privilege of coming in contact with the whole student population. Not only could I spread this new-found knowledge to just my class but with the entire student body. What an idea! It is very exciting to reach all students and help vertically align multiple grade levels with the knowledge with so many more!
