Brainz! How to Survive The Zombie Librarian Apocalypse
- 33. z
Hinweis der Redaktion
- 1 year prior to that ms library/lead librarian pd/principals/sups 42k miles
- neglected husband and two dogs
- socrative different kind of crowd
- led to lots of questions
- 1st of all let’s all just acknowledge the fact that we all know some zombies. we’ll just assume no one in here is a zombie. walking dead - contagious. important = what happened?
- are zombie librarians born or made? in my experience... 3 reasons. but i also know that it’s tough to diagnose the illness without first exampining the patient.
- so... Let’s get to know our enemy. Together we’re goinna figure out what makes a zomei a zombie AND mor eimportantly What we can do ti keep from becoming one. Let’s get started.
- Apart from lawyers
- Even the least cool car in the world is too cool for enough for us.
- Obviously, sony had not seen anyone in this room. stereotypes exist for a reason. zombie librarians perpetuate the worst ones. the kind that make us seem outdated and expendable. so what can we do?
- my principal interview not mean. cared more about books than kids. made kids hate reading. wanted everything quiet all of the time.
- if you don’t set the expectations, they will be set for you. fill the gap in what your community expects with a bucket full of awesome.
- book release costume parties author skypes. loud and messy - got kids excited about reading.
- every bulletin board/display interactive. sandra hughes hassel.
- gwyneth jones book bros engage hard to reach learners by making the learning fun.
- 1.5 million kids drop out each year. 5 million play video games. play = essential. play and libraries aren’t always a combo people put together
- if i had a dollar. we have to change what people expect from a “real librarian.”
- full disclosure. genre shelving fan. makes librarians fiesty.
- we went full on genrefied. let kids and faculty inform decisions about categories. empowered and sense of ownership. circulation through the roof. loss DOWN. HARD WORK
- cockroaches create a narrative map they will NEVER EVER LEARN DEWY dewey is not a lifeskill
- we cannot keep kids from checking out books because they owe money. we have to be good stewars. core values/mission food for fines responsibility/altruism/libraries centers for social good.
- same thing over and over and over and over again.
- boys who needed to read. measured it - created change.
- common core = primary sources. what makes a source authoritative? skill of evaluating sources student voice authoritative.
- we have to stop being the copyright police. more carrot less stick. have kids license their own works. part of their culture.
- genuine questions no one ever wondered... variety of sources and media.
- i love david lankes notion of libraries being about building communities. changes our questions.
- success less dependent on others. empowers us values the work over the room of stuff. yes... still advocate for better and more, but work magic with what you have.
- we are all advocates. but successful advocacy requires making people care. only a small % care about libraries fewer about librarians.
- lazy teaching
- only doing 1/3 of what CCSS asks for what 2/3 of the math book are you willing to toss out?
- plus, the measure isn’t even a very good one.
- libraries reshelved by lexile. teach kids that reading is only something you do for assessment. today readers /tomorrow leaders. principals - why didn’t anyone tell me this? wrapped up in message about kids?
- unless someone is bleeding or on fire... know your generals. be a general. scratch backs.
- for better or worse, we living in a data driven world zombie libraries ingore it to their peril and to ours
- regulary
- message to teachers - i know curricula. I care about student success. principal’s door.
- connect it to student learning. circ statistics are meaningless alone principals don’t care - and why should they? collaboration data.
- knitting cat sweater
- swing a dead cat without hitting a hashtag. if you are not connected, you are just stubborn.
- video games also a single tweet. your PLN will help you make a difference. this is a tough job, we cannot do it alone. having a pln means you don’t ahve to.
- be the answer to their problems
- we make time for things that are important to us. schedule it. “i don’t have time.” No. Make time.
- Or another way to put this might be that their doing technology wrong. still “i live in a tech black hole?” really? you live in the amazon? of subshara africa? if not, then just no.
- meme
- shannon avatars google hangouts on air. mystery skypes
- more people have access to mobile phones than to running water. high school library. which is more important? why might that be the problem? what is true in these place? govt vs. commericial concerns? how do we fix it?
- clicker draggers? or creators and builders? don’t waste your time or theirs on kill and drill apps. let them lead the way and show YOU how to use the technology.
- this IS where it’s going. even the poorest, most rural, most remote OR most over crowded and underfunded school WILL get more devices. If you are just an access point, you are about to become obsolute.
- mark moran
- answer? who cares! make your resources the answer to an authentic question and then they will NEED to know how the resources are organized.
- walk throughs see what they value.
- don’t waste their time or yours. solve a real problem. $5 webcam
- word wall pet peeves.
- assistants were cut. 1-2 principals
- our work is sacred. less alone, safe, like it was okay to be vulnerable i don’t worry about unemployed librarians. i worry about kids like me.
- that said, i know there are things we don’t have control over.
- the more i work with principals, the more i believe this to be true. we have to show them that we are the answer to their problems.
- i get it.
- the stakes are too high if we don’t.
- look around... all of these colleagues on your side. plus you have the world is at your finger tips. what’s more, i believe that whether we call it the zombie librarian apocolapyse
- or a world without school librarians, we can only survive it together. so... let’s begin where we began.
