Librarian truths: Recent Episodes
Lindsay Holland
Librarians are more than book keepers. Let your librarian be your best resource for help: integrating new technology, co-teaching, unit planning, and more.
In this episode you will hear from special guest Mrs. Rita who teaches 7th-8th grade Social Studies. Together we discuss the preparations we are making for this very different and socially-distanced school year.
Today I will be talking about some hard truths about educators posting online. We will also hear from a former Secondary Academic Reassignment teacher, Dustyn, about some experience that he has had online as an educator and advice that he would share with other teachers and students.
I think I would wish away this virus if I had that power, but since I don’t have a monkey’s paw, I will content myself with learning from our experiences, and standing together with my fellow educators and librarians, and do what we do best—get our students what they need.
Librarians aren’t just your best resource for finding books. They are equipped to help with information literacy lessons, assist in research projects, and provide help in planning and facilitating all manner of technology-related learning. In short, the library is the place to go when looking for help.
