Virtual Vital: Blogging

Hello Vitual Learners!

My name is Alison Lattimore.  I'm a recent graduate of SUNY Albany and newly certified to work as a school media specialist in NYS!  This is my first summer without any classes, and it definitely feels very weird!  I was offered this course and thought that it would be a great way to keep up with a new technology and learn new things while I have the summer free especially since my children are working at summer camps and are not at home the entire week!  I currently work in Shenendehowa HS East/West library as a typist but am looking for employment as a school media specialist in the area.

Ironically, both my wonderful mentors are a part of this course!  I feel honored to be participating with such wonderful folks and look forward to virtually meeting everyone who is participating!

  2. Welcome to the course Alison! I'm so glad you could join us! You've clearly got the hang of blogging, which is great, as that's the format of the bulk of the course. I'm glad to have you along--feel free to comment on any of our posts and chime in if you have ideas or questions. Thanks for commenting on Maureen's blog. I hope she'll do the same for you!

  3. Hi Alison,

    This is such a great way to connect with other librarians and to learn something new. I am a beginner blogger and already having a lot of fun with it. Who knew?! My goal is to use it as a resource for parents, students, colleagues and administrators to find out what is going on in my library and to showcase my students' work. This past spring I started a book club with the staff in my district and would like to figure out a way to use the blog to share ideas and discussions. We shall see...

    Hope you are enjoying your summer.

    Take care,
    Katrina
