By now, I’m sure most of you are picturing yourself as an SLMS. There’s a honeymoon period with any new job. There’s also a lot of fear when you think about situations that might arise. You might ask yourself: Am I ready to handle _____?
Here are some things I’ve seen lately that might be useful along these lines.
The idea for this post comes from Rosalind’s Dennis entry on the GLMA blog yesterday. She relates a common frustration and then explains how she deals with the frustration itself.
Kris Woods relates her experience in helping kids evaluate websites.
Craig Coleman has a plan for cutting down on tech troubleshooting – in case you find yourself in the role of Chief Technical Problem-Solver in your building.
These are just a sample from the past month of the new GLMA Blog.
From other places:
Frances Jacobson Harris has many good ideas, including a cool bulletin board word-search with book titles. Look at the Jan 31 entry on her blog.
Buffy Hamilton explains how she uses Del.icio.us for research.
The Internet puts us in touch with our colleagues – a wonderful thing when you’re one of a kind in your building. Blogs have amplified our connectivity by a tremendous amount. Have a problem? Someone has blogged it!
