So why is it, with all this tech experience, do I quiver at the thought of being the "go-to" person for technology on my campus? Maybe it's because I've explored enough to realize that what I do know is just a fraction of what's out there and available to teachers and students. I know what works for me, what I can handle (constant Tweeting is not it, that's for sure), and what I consider "user-friendly"--but those are very personal descriptors, and everyone learns and works and organizes and thinks differently. Maybe I quiver because my tech experience is at the user-end of applications; please do not ask me how LANs or hard drives or doc cameras work. Just show me how to push the buttons, connect the hardware, store the data, take the pictures, and teach my students and staff what they need to know in an engaging, educational format. If you find a really cool online app, tell me how it fits into your classroom instruction and makes it better--I'll play with it, too! It's okay if I tear a little bit of hair out in the process; making mistakes is a part of learning. But time is a precious commodity to those of us who have less than 175 days a year to cover more than a year's worth of curriculum, to teach those phonics and reading strategies and math facts and problem solving skills and research paper requirements, while allowing for recess, read-alouds, counseling, lunch, and nose-blowing. It's a tall order for teachers and librarians alike. So please do not ever consider me a tech expert--I'm learning right along with you. I'll do my best to have a quiver-full of tech tools to lay before you, instead of quivering on the edge of the ocean of technology.
