Biggest Takeaways

This class was an incredible opportunity to learn about all the technological aspects of a school librarian and the library space. I had no idea that librarians are supposed to be technology specialists and leaders in schools. Not having a great model of librarian in my current school, I now understand how much my school is missing out on when it comes to technology and makerspace.


I am pleased that I had the opportunity to create my own website for my future library and feel confident that my patrons and their families will feel empowered with available resources at the click of a button. Creating blog posts each week helped me feel more connected with the technology that will help me communicate with school faculty and staff, students and their parents.


I thoroughly enjoyed the week with AI and augmented reality. It highlighted several resources I would like to share with others to get students excited about exploring the art and culture of countries around the world. Kids today are excited about learning with technology and the more I know about what is out there, the happier my students will be.


At the beginning of the semester, I expressed a hope to feel more confident integrating technology into student learning. Now, I can proudly say that this hope has transformed into a tangible skill.
