Tool 4

Our little PLN is growing by leaps and bounds. I'm so proud of our teachers because they are beginning to reach out and help each other locate, create, and embed when a few weeks ago they were terrified at the thought of doing 11 tools. Today's class saw conversation turn from being overwhelmed by the many 2.0 tools to how, as their librarian, I was there to help support them and help their students be prosumers. Really cool stuff! I've used Google Docs to collaborate with other librarians and district staff but I haven't had much of a chance at school since so few people on campus were familiar with the 2.0 tool available through the district. Now that others are learning about it in 11 Tools I'm excited about the possiblities to collaborate and communicate with our great staff.
I've used Google forms to survey the staff regarding our school publication called the Flashlight. I wanted to see if the majority of the staff felt it was worth continuing. Since I just finished publishing this year's copy you can see that the responses received were positive.
Next year I hope to allow students and staff to complete even more surveys since the tool won't be so new and unfamiliar around our campus.

  2. Without question, I think we definitely should keep the Flashlight. I would love to help you with that. The CCP Cadre would probably like to take on that role if need be. We can discuss it at our next meeting.
