Monday (6 hours)
Today was an easy day in the library as there were no students. However, there was still a lot to do, mostly checking books in and reshelving. A lot of the teachers brought their students in on Friday and there was just not enough time to check in all the books that were turned back in.
Wednesday (3 hours)
Today was more checking out of books. There was, however, a class that came to find books for a project. I got to help them find the books they need. While doing so I noticed that the students struggle with understanding their project. When asking them what kind of books they needed for their project they were unsure. I think that having a mini-lesson on library research would have helped them.
Friday (6 hours)
Today I spent some time at Norcross High School with the schools Instructional Technologist also known as the LSTC (Local School Technology Coordinator). I noticed the differences in job descriptions based on the school. At this particular school, the LSTC get to help on a multitude of levels from; teacher training, students training, and specialty programs. This particular day was a slow one as the only thing that was getting working on was the trainings website. This did give me a lot of time to talk with the LSTC, his insight on the field and the jobs available in this county have me even more excited than I already am. One of the things I did observe however, was his semester trainings. Every year he comes out with a series of trainings over a number of topics that usually have a theme behind it.
