Wow, it has been a very busy week at my Teacher Librarian job, and in my Instructional Technologies grad school program. First, I made a concept map about one of my favorite topics: Old-Time Music! I was so inspired at the Hardly Strictly Bluegrass Festival in SF, and hope I can improve my own fiddle playing if I ever have time to practice! You can check out my concept map here:

This week I also was working with kids in the library using SuccessMaker, and adaptive learning platform for elementary school students. We have been working out a schedule for teachers to use Successmaker with their students, which has been a challenge since we have a finite number of licenses. This week I'll see if I can come up with a schedule so the classes can stagger when they use the software. It must be so frustrating to pass out all the Chromebooks, only to find out students can't log on because we've exceeded the allowable number of users. I'm hoping that we're able to work out a schedule that works for everyone, and that the students benefit from use of the program.
Also this week I'll be looking more at Discovery Education, and hoping students can begin to use their online accounts. I'm excited to get them started researching topics of interest, and creating webpages using BoardBuilder.
Have a great week everybody!!
