Trying Can Be Trying

Search blog as it deals with lots of Information Literacy issues. Jean and I have also been updating our Minneapolis Media Trying new things can be a "trying" experience, especially when things...like my schedule...change on an hourly basis. Since the last time I blogged I have been working on organizing my hundreds of pictures from Bangladesh. I have also set up an iGoogle web page and set up an RSS feed from School Library Journal. I must recommend the Neverendingwebpage where we try to post all the things that media specialists need to know to do their job. That's quite a feat! We have also been assigned to do a little action research on the efficacy of an audio enhancement system that has been installed in one of our North Side schools. It has been fun visiting classrooms and seeing teachers and kids in action. Through a district initiative many of these schools have been able to reduce class size to 20 students. If only all of our students could be in that kind of environment again.
I will be posting this "class" on the eCompass site so we can track the credits for everyone. Technology is amazing but I often think of what happens to all those records out there in cyberspace when we experience a major power outage. Ouch!
