Instructional Partner (1 Hr), Information Specialist (22 Hrs), Leader (2 Hrs), Program Adminstrator (1 Hr)

Instructional Partner: Last week, I spent an hour on my information literacy unit. The teachers that I am collaborating with have decided to have students complete a travel brochure for an assigned biome. In addition to the CRCT test results, we used the 7th grade writing predictor test to decide on what type of project we wanted students to complete.

Information Specialist: The last two weeks, I have been able to complete both of my required shadow days. I completed one at my elementary site and one at my high school site (16 hours). At the elementary site, I was able to finish weeding the old fiction section of the media center. I also checked out students, helped students find books, and led a class review of CRCT practice. This particular media center has a fixed schedule, and the media specialist has been doing CRCT review with the classes that come in. At the high school site, I re-shelved books, checked out students, helped many students find the books they were looking for, helped students with research projects, and helped weed the college and career materials. I have also spent two hours on my reference collection assignment. At my primary site, I completely processed 13 items into our automated system. Even though it was only 13 items, it took 3 hours because we have a new automated system this year. It took a while for the media specialist and I to figure out how to actually get it done. I also created a wiki page that provides students with an easy to use guide for properly citing sources to avoid plagiarism (1Hr). I will use this wiki for the travel brochure project that we are working on for my information literacy unit.

Leader: The last two weeks, I delivered my effective use of technology lesson three different times. I delivered it during my shadow day at the elementary site. I also delivered it at the elementary site one day after school and at my primary site after school (2hr).

Program Administrator: I have also spent an hour on the evaluation of the media center using the GA DOE 2009 Library Media Program Evaluation Rubric. I have done this in collaboration with the media specialist.
