Technology Training

One of the roles of a media specialist is to share his/her technology expertise with teachers that will assist them with classroom instruction. The media specialist must find the best way to offer her services to teachers.
As a new media the first thing I would like to do is get too know the teachers on the team.
Cultivating relationships with teachers will help them to be more open to help and suggestions.
During the weekly staff meetings I would occasionally ask permission to give a brief abstract of a new technology that could assist in the classroom or others services that the media specialist has to offer. In addition, during in-service time I would talk with the administration about teaching a class on technology and information retrieval in the classroom.
Another way that I would help teachers with technology is by setting up a blog. On this blog I would write articles on different types of technology with links to sites that would be helpful. In addition, I would list website that pertain to what is currently being taught according to the curriculum, the websites would change every grading period to align to what is currently being taught.
